2000 Pontiac Sunfire SE review from North America

My gas gage has never worked properly.

Car has taken to overheating for no apparent reason.

The head has warped.

The CD player only works half the time.

This is in response to the previous comments that I have been reading about the problems we all seem to be having with this model of car.

I have just recently spent over $1,000 to fix my Sunfire. I have a lot of the same problems with my car that have been mentioned in previous reviews.

My car had the eratic gas gage levels and the stalling. I inquired several different times with the local dealership as to the cause and they were only able to tell me that it could be 1 of 26 different things.

I do not have the money to replace 26 different things on this car in hopes that I might get lucky and fix the problems within the first few tries.

Here are some of the things that I replaced before I finally got it fixed. The first thing that the dealership suggested was the ignition module, which cost over $100, then there was the thermostat which runs about $8.00, the the fuel filter, another $20.00, and finally when all was said and done, the fuel pump at a cost of $200.

On top of all of this my car started running hot and overheating for no reason. This eventually caused the head to warp and I had to have 20 thousandths shaved off.
