    Engine and transmission very good, very good handing. Interior materials very cheap, the seats are horrible and very unconfortable. The body paint need to be improved the quality. The rust is coming out already. I changed two of the four electric motor windows already.

  • My 3rd, and most likely last - 2000 Pontiac Bonneville
    By -

    No service issues until 40K. Now @ 50K: Transmission, Wheel barings, CV Joints, Tie Rods, Steering rack, Window motor, Dash gauges & lights, Radio, Heated seats, Converter & Exhaust, Rotors, Calipers, Strut mounts, struts, 02 sensors, A/C, mass air flow sensor, injectors and some other engine parts. Now the supercharger is dying, and there is a strong vibration during acceleration that no dealerships can seem to figure out. Also, the car is rusting in spots.

    We have loved driving this car. Looks great! However, we have had several problems with it. Rack and Pinin had to be replaced at 1000 miles,and since then at least once a year, transmission problems, catalic converter had to be replaced, carbarator had problems, dash board panel peels, had to be replaced. Shakes and Rattles in side, High road noise. Cup holder is for two cups, but it will only hold one.

  • Great design and ride but poor quality - 2000 Pontiac Bonneville
    By -

    Love the design, performance, and ride. But,quality has not been good.Power steering and rack went out at 1000 miles.Other problems in the first 25000 miles include lose headliner, sunroof track misaligned, leaking window, power window broke, cracked speaker, numerous door rattles, ignition switch replaced, manifold gasket leak, replace tie rod ends, replace steering shaft. Now at 38,000 the transmission is acting up. The console has a 2 cup holder but the holders are too close together so only 1 cup will fit.

    Although I have really enjoyed the three Bonnevilles Ive owned, this 2000 model is the worst of the bunch. Lots of rattles & squeaks plus a lot of front end difficulties. Now they tell me the drive shaft is shot and needs replacement. Some strut squeaks and woes thrown in for good measure. Replaced brakes (new) make a lot of noise too. Still it has been reliable in all other regards.

    New 2 year old with 32k in 2002. 2 mnths later trans went. Dealer replaced at their cost, but forgot a few bolts during the repair. Yup fluids all over the engine and driveway. Rear window came off the track 2xs. Sunroof was completely replaced(glass and all) because of wind noise. Wonderful steering noise started just after 39k miles(sorry warranty done). After that my ignition key doesnt always want to turn (happens to both of my keys), and leaves the million dollar question- will it start today. 2 alternators later and 4 weeks after the last one car died again. To make if even better it was on my Birth Day (9/16). I only have 57k miles on a 6yr old car-why I ask do I have so many issues.

    The split bench seat is worthless due to console design. With the drivers seat up and forward you can hardly get in and out of the car. In general leg room is not what you would expect in a full size car. You get as much out of a Grand Prix

  • Its just not my ol 94 Bonneville - 2000 Pontiac Bonneville
    By -

    When I purchased this car, I was in hopes that it would compare to my 94 Bonneville. Didnt happen. The r&p steering has been replaced twice before fixed. Fan blower motor replaced, still chirps. Dealership trying to find clunking noise near glove box. Have installed a windshield and "three alternators" (not sure why)with the noise still there. Terrible wind/road interior noise in front and back. Front cup holders are too small.
