  The best car I have ever owned - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By AmynRyan - September 5 - 10:00 am

  We just recently bought a 1999 Grand Am SE. The performance of the 3.4 liter V- 6 engine is phenomenal! The sporty look, and feel of the Grand Am is perfect as well. It handles exceptionally well, and taking corners at higher rates of speed is as easy as blinking your eyes. But the Grand Am doesnt stop there. The ETS system makes the Grand Am an even better car to drive. For those tough steep grades, or snow and ice covered roads, youll be thankful that the Grand Am has incorporated such a valuable asset! I have never been happier with this car, and I am a proud owner of a Pontiac!

  DRIVES GREAT WHEN NOT IN THE SHOP! - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By singer - August 30 - 10:00 am

  This car is a mixed bag. When its running, its a great car. But I have had sooo many problems with it. I bot it from Hertz with 28,000 mi. Now has 59,000. Ive had to replace brakes 2 xs (and they still feel weird), 2 altenators, 2 batteries, water pump. The door hinge is broken, the winshield washer tank leaks. There is an oil leak and transmission fluid is leaking. Just traded it in - couldnt take all the time & money in the shop.

  Not bad overall - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By John - August 17 - 5:30 pm

  Current Mileage: est 77,000 When i got this car it had 1500 miles. For the majority of the time i have owned this car its been a reliable. I can now start to feel it wanting to die. She sometimes needs two trys to start. She is very good in the snow and drives good. Just got to watch your foot because she will take off if you dont watch..

  I plan to continue buying Pontiacs - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By leeza112 - July 15 - 10:00 am

  This is a great car to drive. Brilliant handling, turn on a dime steering, traction control, CD sound system, showy sporty exterior, especially for a family car. Great handling on wet surfaces, very safe. I will definitely buy another Pontiac.

  Piece of junk - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Crapcar - June 6 - 10:00 am

  I have had to have it towed to the dealership 5 times for various things breaking down(alternator, the oxygen sensor, computer, among other things). The starter went 2 times, the water pump failed, and the radiator had a leak. The paint started pealing off the car. The fog light have been replace 2 times because they keep collecting water. The interior is falling apart. The seams on the driver’s seat let go and all the padding fell out. The door panels are starting to fall apart. The CD player died. The tilt steering wheel lever broke off leaving the steering wheel to move up and down freely. Overall this is the worse car I have ever owned.

  Research this car first!!!! - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By dochollywood - March 14 - 10:00 am

  I loved this car (bought new) but problems began immediately after my warranty ended. I understand that certain things will need maintenance, but not this many things at 40,000 miles! I have since read about other GT owners with the same list of problems (mainly 1998-2002 GTs)and just want other potential buyers to be aware because I wasnt.

  GM - NEVER AGAIN! - 1999 Pontiac Grand AM
  By "PATTY" OLOUGHLIN - February 23 - 10:00 am

  VEHICLE NOT BUILT FOR ENDURANCE. PURCHASED IN 12/98. AT 38,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION WENT. GM’S ANSWER- “YOU SHOULD HAVE PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY!” NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM THOUGHT THE LIFE OF THE AUTO. AFTER 3 YEARS AND 120,000 THE ENGINE SEALS WENT RESULTING WITH WATER IN THE OIL. TRADED FOR ANOTHER MANUFACTURER AND GM WILL NEVER SEE ME AGAIN!
