Overview & Reviews

Base model SEs get a new 2.2-liter four-cylinder engine, while GTs get newly styled 16-inch wheels. All models receive a console upgrade and two new exterior colors.

• Lots of standard features, available five-speed manual transmission, crisp handling.

• Price creep has followed sales growth, true sport sedans need a five-speed with a V6, cheap interior pieces.

  I love it - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By yes2rock - October 3 - 2:00 am

  had this car for a year now, no sign of the problems other reviewers have had. The handling is on par with sporty Europeans, and the engine is powerful enough so you dont really need a stickshift. This is the first automatic car I have had that actually performs . The ride is surprisingly quiet, and you just have to love all the little niceties that are usually available only at 30K and up. Best car for the money.

  in the shop moe then - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By larryscott - July 23 - 10:00 am

  My car has been in the shop more then I have driven it. One of tires has come apart in pieces, the window on the drivers side did not roll up after 10,000 miles, they had to replace the guide the switch and the relay, I had to have the intake gasket replaced 2 times with only 20,000 miles on the car, then the blinker stayed on and when I took it to the dealer they said there was going to be a recall on the Grand AM. Over all this car is helping me make my mind on another car because all the rental cars that I have gotten while my car was getting fixed.

  Great Car After New Parts - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Caboosey - July 18 - 4:03 am

  I bought the car for $10,000 back in Oct. 2004. It had around 69,000 miles, I gave up car at 89,000 miles. Gave up car back to father. Overall its performance was very good. However the brakes were replaced a 2nd time within a month of 1st replacement. When it was replaced 2nd time, both front calipers, front rotars, new brake fluid, & new brake fluid lines. (About $600 between both repairs. Brake pads were under warrentry from first repair). After all that was taken car of, It was very reliable and safe. My mechanic found the cars calipers & tie rods to be defective original parts. Hard to believe the car has great quality sound for a stock sound system.

  2.2-L4 ENGINE and MANUAL TRANNY!! - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By bill 731 - July 15 - 7:26 pm

  Great car so far,only 600 miles on it so I can give no opinion on reliability.This Ecotec 2.2-L4 engine is so smooth you would think it was a six Cly.And the 5 speed manual Trans.is a perfect mate,we got 35 MPG on only the 2nd fill up.

  Pontiac Forever - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Pontiac Guy - June 22 - 10:00 am

  Performs like a 6 cyl. Handles with the best. Interior roominess and great, but understated cockpit, make my 2002 Grand AM my preferred sedan of choice.

  Grand AM 2002 - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By tartis - June 10 - 2:00 am

  My 2002 Grand AM gets a lot of miles, but it is starting to burn oil after 75,000 miles. I am also having a major problem with the turn signal mulit- function switch which is starting to click all the time. The performance of the 3.4L v6 is great, and fun to drive.

  Dependable, Quality Vehicle - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Abby - May 9 - 1:33 pm

  This vehicle is dependable, with lots of bang for the buck. It is styled better than other cars in its class. High Quality parts and Sporty Chrome Wheel package a big plus.

  Dont Buy a Grand Am - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Gary Harris - April 22 - 9:50 pm

  I bought a 2002 Grand Am GT a couple of months ago and the passlock system started acting up. I have read a lot about this subject on message boards so I took my radio out to look at the yellow wire. Someone had soldered it to the black wire. I disconnected it from the black wire but left the yellow wire cut. Now the car wont even turn over let alone start. I wish I had never bought this car.
