Overview & Reviews

Only subtle changes are on tap for the 2002 Bonneville. Most notable on the list are new front and rear fascias for the base SE model, while new exterior badging and dual exhaust tips debut on the SLE and SSEi models. Newly styled 17-inch wheels, three new exterior colors, LATCH child-seat anchors, an improved Monsoon sound system and redesigned cupholders round out the changes.

• Loads of gee-whiz features, head-turning styling.

• Stout V6 in a segment that demands a V8, nameplate lacks snob appeal of luxury imports, head-turning styling.

  Disappointed and Frustrated - 2002 Pontiac Bonneville
  By Disappointed in GA - August 16 - 7:10 pm

  I loved this car from the start. It was fun to drive. But, after owning this vehicle for less than 1 year, I got a vibration in the front end that was so made it would make your butt numb. Literally. I have had it in the dealership at least 15 times and have replaced the tires. No help. I also have an issue with losing power. Completely and without warning. The dealership cannot find a problem. It just wont start for a day or two. And then it does. I too have had issues with the steering column and Idler Arms needing to be replaced. I agree, owning this vehicle will cause you to know your Service Advisor much too well. Very disappointing and very frustrating.

  So far, so good. I havent had any real problems with this car. Initially, there was some issue with starting the car. Somehow that has worked itself out. Other than a cargo net anchor breaking, this car rocks! If you have the opportunity and the means, get one!

  Dont but this car - 2002 Pontiac Bonneville
  By john729 - May 8 - 10:00 am

  This is an ok car but i wouldnt recommend buying it. I have had many problems with it. I had to get new front brake rotors at 20,000 miles and now the brakes are squeaking. The 3.8L engine has a lot of power but it seems like the transmission is holding it back. The engine also runs very rough and is very loud, but when you are inside the car you cant hear anything. I also think the car has horrible handleing. The interior of the car is very comfortable except for the headrests and head room. I dont like leather so the cloth seat option was nice.

  Made in USA - 2002 Pontiac Bonneville
  By Bob_96 - April 6 - 2:00 am

  This is my second Bonneville, the first was a 96. I try to buy American products because I think its important to this countrys long term health. My 96 was 95% domestic (USA/Canada) while the 02 was 85%. I loved my 96 and when it was time to replace it, the choice was between the 02 and the 03. The price difference was less than $100 but GM made standard features in the 02 optional in the 03. The 02 ended up being a much better value.

  Traded in Lincoln Continental for a reliable GM product. Although the 3.8L lacks a little power it runs great and is a proven design.
