2001 Pontiac Montana review from North America
"Good van overall"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Coolant leak from intake manifold - this is a common problem for this engine.
Air shock leaking after 2 years.
Brakes require maintenance often to avoid rotor replacement.
General comments?
I love my van, but GM should fix the gasket problem with this engine and own up to making the reqairs at their cost - not ours.
