  By Leo - July 11 - 10:43 am

  I bought my car with 102k at 2005 and its still running strong till today with 165k in 2009 when i first got it i noticed the temp always stays high,there was a clench in the shifts and my oil place change place advised me to sell it whenever i get a chance..the car used to stop while running and the shifts was pretty rough..my mechanic changed the throttle sensor ($50 part)..and the car never gave me any problems sence..smooth shifts fun ride I only does my oil change on time and my annual tune up in time . Changing the brakes, rotors, the battery, the CD player and couple of fuses were all the work I did in 4 years.

  2000 SE1 Electrical Problems - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By FED-UP - April 3 - 10:00 am

  Never again! Ive had this car in the shop 9 times in almost 3 years. Mostly electrical problems. Many times the dealerships were very difficult to work with and wouldnt fix it on the first try. When the car is running, it is a great vehicle. I drive easy highway miles and hope to get at least 150,000 miles out of this car, but Im not holding my breath. Be warned!

  wasnt perfect ...... - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By InfernoDan98 - March 21 - 10:00 am

  When I first bought the car it had a bad pull to the left at speeds over 50 mph. Pontiac said it was torque steer. Took to local chevy dealer where a buddy works and found the left strut was not installed correctly. And Pontiac just blew me off.

  What a piece of junk - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By oy vey - March 16 - 2:00 am

  Fun to drive but now I just want to drive it off a cliff. Rear bumper molding replaced. Turn signal switch replaced. A/C blower motor replaced. Fuel level sensor replaced. Ignition lock cylinder replaced. Drivers side window regulator and glass attachment replaced twice. Power steering hydraulic return hose replaced. Thats quite a list for a 3 year old car. The worst part is after the window went for the 2nd time and complaining about the power steering for the 3rd time I asked for the service manager to complain. His response to me was "everything breaks". Of course my response was "thats what Im complaining about".

  Dont buy the 2.4 liter - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By TRLL - January 9 - 10:00 am

  Overall not a bad car. However the 2.4 liter engine is the worst that GM makes.It has not been imoroved on since 1989 when it came out. All the parts are very expensive and they all will fail. My local Pontiac dealership told me " I dont know why we still make that engine, its garbage"

  Nice for an American Car - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Nowda - January 2 - 10:00 am

  I admit it is nice for an American car, and it handles very well. The exterior has a very exciting look and the interior definately gives you the sports car feeling. The chrome wheels add that accent in which other than tint your windows, all you have to do when purchasing this car is turn on the ignition and drive...the car will do the rest.

  Great Car!! - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By wild_166 - October 9 - 7:36 pm

  I got my car with 49,000 miles in 2003. It has been a great car. Yes I have had to do normal maintenance and a few extra but other then that It has done broke down on me. It now has 237,000 + miles on it and the fuel pump has finally died. Everyone about dies when I tell them its never been replace before now. The gas mileage is also great . The only downside is that brakes and rotors dont last long with the mileage I drive every year. Also If you buy one look under the spare trunk lid and see if it says NC1. I live in Indiana and my car has never been in CA and that is where it was built for so if you ever need to replace heads , and other parts you cannot buy them in other places in us.

  I Love My Grand Am - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By cdaniel - August 28 - 10:00 am

  This car in my opinion has been everything i could ask for. Since i have bought it I have had absolutely no problems with it at all, I take it in for the oil change and that is all i have to worry about. This car is not only reliable, but it has the looks as well. I would highly recomend this car to anyone who was in the market.

  Great for 11 years old! - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Grego - May 12 - 10:03 pm

  I bought this car, upgrading from a 94 Taurus, from a co-worker. This car is in great condition thanks to the previous owner. Maintenance goes a long way when done properly and on time. Braking seems soft, even with new brake pads installed. Very fun and sporty, and so far I get about 29-31 MPG highway. Great handling on winding roads, even with sub-par tires. Tires for the GT can be a little pricier and is hard to find good all seasons that dont change tire size, which means recalibrating the speedometer. Overall I am very happy, and make sure you do your upkeep! Acceleration can seem sluggish at times, and @ 110K mi. time for new belts, hoses, and a good tune-up.
