  This is the most miserable car Ive ever owned. The same three problems happen every year (window regulator, blower motor, transmission.) I paid $10,000 for it in 04 Ive put approx $6,000 into it in repairs. I will never own another pontiac again based on the performance of this car.

  Could be better - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM

  Overall I have been fairly impressed with the ride and drive of this car. The handling is good, the performance excellent, and the Monsoon sound system has some of the best FM reception I have witnessed. There are some build quality issues I have, but overall a decent car.

  Great Car But...... - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By TNuss915 - January 17 - 10:00 am

  Brake noise! This is my 2nd GT. My first was a 2000. I love the car but wont buy another one, because the brake noise. It sounds like the pads are dragging but there not. Ive had it to the dealership several times and they say its because of what the rotors are made of. I have talked to other Grand Am driver and they have the same problem. It is annoying to the point that it ruins the car.

  Good 1st car - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Brad - November 24 - 7:46 am

  I bought the car new in 02 and have put 54000 miles on it with few problems. Windshield leaked, which warranty covered. Since then I have had to replace 2 wheel bearings and the brakes squeak since theyve been changed. My mechanic says there is nothing they can do to fix that but theyve had that problem with most of the Grand Ams they fixed. Overall it has been a very good car for my 1st car out of college. It runs good and looks good for the money.

  The Grand AM overall is a very nice car. Other than brake rotors needing to be resurfaced at 41000 miles, and the fuel pump at 47000 miles, I have had no problems mechanically with the car. The fuel mileage is somewhat less than expected, I generally average about 20-24mpg. I have gotten 31mpg on a freeway stretch, but I have never seen mileage that high again.

  Awesome......when it works - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
  By toyotaboyesl - June 9 - 2:00 am

  We rented it for a week and loved it. I loved the handling and speed. It looked REALLY cool, it was really so much different than the Camrys, Accords, Corollas, and Siennas and I am used to! That must be why I liked it so much, a VERY cool car, it will definatly wake you up from the boringness of most other cars in its class! Another thing that I loved was the sound system. Oh, I could go on and on about that! It played CDs so perfectly clear, it was the first factory stereo system that I have ever seen that could actually play heavy bass.
