2004 Pontiac Sunfire Coupe review from North America
"Decent car if you don't get a lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield wipers stop working once in a while.
Fog lights failed.
Drivers side headlight failed and passenger side just flashed.
Rear struts blown at 10,000km.
Very cheap paint, chips very easily.
Transmission makes a grinding noise.
Trunk lock is cheap quality; trunk was stuck shut for a period of time.
General comments?
A decent car if you don't have any reliability issues like I have.
It's pretty zippy and decent gas.
My next car will not be a GM product. I will be looking into imports.
