Richard of Upper Marlboro, MD April 15, 2009
Richard of Upper Marlboro MD (04/15/09) I own a 2000 Pontiac Grand AM GT with only 75,000 miles on it. It has had regular scheduled maintenance on it. I kept getting an error light (Low Coolant) I would add coolant and before long the light was on again. I never saw any external leaks. Than I heard about the problem with the coolant and intake gasket on the 3.4 L engines.
I had the engine tested and repaired at a cost over 800. I lost the use of the car for 4 days. Susan of East Liverpool, OH April 14, 2009
Susan of East Liverpool OH (04/14/09) i own a 1998 pontiac grand prix which had no previous problems, everything was kept up on it and on 4-6-2009 i was on my way home from work and it caught on fire in the motor while i was in it. it totalled everything under the hood making it not possible to save.
i had to spend money i didn't have to buy another vehicle because i have to have a car to go back and forth to work. no physical damage, but emotional because i didn't have the money to buy another car and because it was just plain scary. Robert of Silver Spring, MD March 28, 2009
Robert of Silver Spring MD (03/28/09) My 2000 pontiacs transmission had to be rebuilt with 80000 miles on it. After further reviews this seems to be a big problem with these transmissions. The cost was just under 3000. Please help. Thanks,
Gary of Las Vegas, NV March 21, 2009
Gary of Las Vegas NV (03/21/09) 2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT complained from day 1 about how the car always ran hot. I am sure by now the radiator is clogged it use to cool down but not no more. I was told it can be changed to regular anti-freeze but the radiator has to be flushed real good. Had an intake gasket replaced at 50,000 miles.
Also when I bought the car the coolant was brown which anti-freeze and dex-cool mixed together i understand this causes gumming in the coolant chambers. Which in turn causes flow restrictions and leads to overheating. But I was told by the dealer president it was OK. When the intake blew I made the flush it and puy new dex-cool in. I suppose thats why they arwe out of business. I have learned 1 thing about buying a car TRUST NO SALESPERSON they will lie to make the sale.
Just frustration and dealers thinking that consumers are stupid. Selena of Clio, MI March 9, 2009
