1999 Pontiac Sunfire SE review from North America
"Good reliable car for young college kids"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator and battery failed then the computer stopped sending charge signal to alternator at 70 000km
15000km later computer quit again only fired on 3 cyl.
Other than that no major problems.
General comments?
Overall good car other than the charging system has some problems.
