1999 Pontiac Sunfire review from North America
"Sporty, reliable, great car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I have ever had with this car was at 122000 miles. The alternator went out. It cost a total of $300 for parts and labor.
General comments?
This was my first car and it was the best choice I could have made!
It was very reliable. Only one problem in the five years I've had it.
It always started in cold weather. We were in MN.
I would drive it into the ground if I could, but some jerk rear ended me and now she's totaled.
Even after that she runs great, but the insurance company wants her.
