1992 Pontiac Grand Prix LE from North America - Comments

Rear disc brakes have never been correct since the car was new. Air conditioning has failed. Rust is becoming more apparent. Dashboard indicator lights work imprpperly and show false readings as well as the shift indicator that displays the wrong gear constantly.

Car is eight years old and is still sharp-looking! Original exhaust still sounds excellent! Don't see any around anymore in this good condition and in this rare two year color-light beige metallic. Comfortable ride and dependable for its year and mileage! Never let me down! Don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon!

My mother owns a 1992 Pontiac Grand Prix LE and I own a shop. Good thing I do because it has been at my shop more than my 81 Chevy 1/2 ton that has a lot of mileage on it.

Within the past 3 months she has put over $2,000 into this car and today, it's dying when she puts it in gear. Mass airflow sensor probably. Only another 50 bucks that she doesn't have. My BMW is a 1977 that's broken down and it's more reliable.

I have a question for people who have a Pontiac. I have a 92 Pontiac Grand Prix SE, I'll fill the gas tank and 100 miles later the tank says half empty. I'm wondering if it's common to have false readings on the dashbord cluster, it's all needles but is there a chance they're wrong?

And if anyone knows were I can get a transmission for this car, let me know, my trannies going.

Thanks,

Sincerly, Michael Eichler

I have question, I have a 92 Grand Prix, it runs great, I agree the dash board light s give false readings. My problem is that while the car is running it shuts off then it will start immediately. This happens maybe once or twice while driving an hour or more. I have put a new fuel pump, filters and sensors any thoughts. Walter at wts57@aol.com.

I own a 1992 Grand Prix LE and I LOVE MY CAR!!! It's the only car I've owned at my mere 19 years of age. I've had it for nearly three years now, and it still runs great! I have had a couple problems with various sensors, etc. but nothing big. Oh... yeah... the brakes... Rear brakes have been a real pain. Luckily, I have a great mechanic and nearly all work has been covered on warranty. I think the problem lies within a poor caliper design. The car has nearly no physical blemishes which is great for its age. But like I said, the car is rather peppy off the line to this day and the tranny is still strong. All I can say about Grand Prix's is that they are one of the best cars on the road. Winter handling is far greater than any car my parents have ever owned. They'll admit that. They weight is distrubuted superbly from end to end.

Thanks,

Well I recently bought a 1992 Grand Prix LE, and the car looks and sounds sharp. A month away from my 19th birthday and found a car the looks and sounds beautiful without going over board. When I start it, it purs like a kitten, and at a traffic light it can even beat a ford Taurus SHO of the line. This car is great, and I plan on keeping it around for a long time.

Any suggestions on what could make it look even more awesome

I have a 1992 Grand Prix LE with 3.1L V6. It's still in good condition and had the engine rebuilt less than a year ago. The only problems I have now that I didn't cause is the dash board cluster which has been known to go bad with false speedometer readings, trip meter and odometer not working, and lights giving false readings. Other than that it still runs great. About 4 months ago I got in an accident on the highway and rear-ended a Chevy truck at 45 MPH the only damage done to the car was the bumper cracked and the lights got smashed. Overall it's a good car with plenty of power.
