"Sell it fast while you still can"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

To much to list, some common problems were intake leaks, transmission, wipers staying in up right position, valve job ect...

General comments?

If it was a horse it would be shot long ago!Spend a little more and buy a Honda or Toyota. This is the worst car I ever had and will never buy a GM again!!

I agree with you on the electrical part of this vehicle.

I too have wiper problems along with others.

Clock doesn't work.

Low coolant light for no reason comes on along with the air bag light and many others.

I'm looking at the new Hyundai Entourage. An awful lot for your money and look at the warranty. Now GM is upping their warranty from 3 to 5 years -- Big DEAL. 10 years and 100k miles. That's where I'm going.

I purchased a 2000 used pontiac montana in july, this year... and have purchased a warranty. how-ever!, now that it is leaking coolant from the lower intake, that isn't covered, but a leaking manafold is! hold out for manifold to go. or- spend $700.00? (11-9-06)

I have a 2000 Montana. I also, have the low coolant warning light on and the air bag light stays on. Now the gas gauge goes up and down as if was full then empty. It's like an electrical yoyo. It does ride comfortably. I've already put more into it then it's worth on as a trade in. I don't recommend this van to anyone. I have trouble with the power lock. I've replaced them a number of time. The weather stripping has come off the sliding doors. I've been told the head gasket needs replace. My brakes have to be replaced every year. I've been told the master cylinder is failing.
