2000 Pontiac Sunfire sedan review from North America
"It's OK only if someone gave it to you. Don't buy it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake lights went out twice causing me to dish out about $130.
Wheels scrubbed when I'd turn left due to steering column.
Gauge light at 50mph mark went out.
Starter is bad. Maybe because of the recall about it catching on fire?
Had to replace the fuel filter.
Currently broke down at my job due to fuel pump. (probably).
Paint chipped and pinstripe wore off.
General comments?
It's a fast, cheap, car; especially for teens.
However, I don't think it is worth the maintenance and the money you put into it.
