1999 Pontiac Sunfire review from North America
"LEMON of a so call CAR"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace the transmission twice. Once by the dealer under warranty the next time at my expense. The radio had to be replaced due the knobs were striped out and now again they are striped out(which this is minor compared the transmission). The motor feels as if it is loose although I have had it checked and the mechanics told me that is just the way the car is. We had a 1998 sunfire and it was great. I don't know what happened with this one. I worry all the time due my daughter lives out of state and it is constantly breaking down on her. Pontiac please quit making these lemons
General comments?
LEMON
I would never buy another sunfire.
FOR SALE.
