  It just wont die - 2002 Pontiac Montana
  By L Kampf - March 18 - 7:46 pm

  My Montana has 430000 K on it and and its still driving with out any problems, and its not like we took very good care of it. The mechanic bet us that if we dident take it for an oil change every 10000k it would die before 100000k, suffice to say he owes use 4 dinners now. All the interior instrumints are broken/ falling appart. The screne for the radio/ clock wont work. knobs on the rear fan speed fell off at 120000k but in the end people who buy vans really are not looking for anything that can get them and their cargo/ passengers from point A to point B, and this van is fantastic on it.

  This stopped me from ever trusting GM - 2002 Pontiac Montana
  By Mitch - March 6 - 3:36 am

  Ive owned it for 3 months and the intake gasket was done when I bought it but now its my problem. Head gasket just went and I pretty sure its going for scrap, as Im not rich! I had better luck with my rusty 91 Astro. All it needed was a y pipe. I would have been better to go with a Ford Taurus wagon for the family, oh well live and learn. I always wanted a Pontiac ever since I was little cause I new they were built better and stronger than GM but now theyre garbage and I will never buy Chevy or Pontiac again!

  Still Liking It - 2004 Pontiac Montana
  By Evie - February 20 - 9:43 am

  Never had any mechanical issues at all. Good on mileage as driven on long trips frequently. Longest trip I drove in this van was over 7000 km and never had issues with weight of luggage and tenting supplies packed in the back. Am very satisfied with my vehicle so far. Wished it didnt have such a limited load weight for pulling a camper trailer. Leaves little choice as to what type of camper trailer to pull as max towing without the optional towing package for 2 adults and gear is 2000 lbs.

  Early use, but promising! - 2005 Pontiac Montana
  By Minivan Dad - February 13 - 8:06 am

  Having owned a 96 Voyager previously, we were VERY pleased with our Montana. The quality and materials are first rate and the build appears to be solid. We had to get the chrome wheels for $650 (pricey!)and werent allowed to exchange them for cheaper alloys due to the employee discount rules. The ride is butter smooth and the power adequate. With the employee discount, we feel that we received an excellent value for the money. A reccommended vehicle!

  2nd Montana - 2005 Pontiac Montana
  By Gary - February 10 - 10:53 pm

  When I saw the employee pricing, I decided to trade my 03 Montana for a 05, but I could not find one that I wanted. Looked at the SV6, thought about it and got a loaded one. 4 weeks later it was on the road for a 4 week vacation in NE. 3 bikes on top, rear seats down, loaded to the gills. What a joy. DVD and the ability to multitask the sound system was great. Satellite radio! Where was it when I was driving cross county in 1980. Seems to be a little less elbow room in the front, but the change in the interior of the doors makes up for it. Plenty of storage space, like the removable storage compartment. Good for putting things away when parking in the city.

  Good Van - 2002 Pontiac Montana
  By ISU FAN - February 8 - 10:00 am

  So far it has been a good, solid van. Love the sporty design and gas mileage. Much better van than a Caravan at a similar price. Windshield wipers are poor, but otherwise everything else is good. Also like the parking aid and stereo.

  just okay - 2000 Pontiac Montana
  By gmcman97 - February 6 - 8:32 pm

  had a lot of problems for the first 3 years some were fixed before warranty ran out had to threaten to sue for after warranty problems but settled out of court for extended warranty (7 yrs. 84,000 miles) have not had anything serious go wrong since it became completely out of warranty the usual tire wear, battery, water pump, alternator etc.

  GM did just fine with the Montana - 2002 Pontiac Montana
  By BCC - February 6 - 2:00 am

  I tested alot of Minivans and I cant say that this was my first choice but I am happy that I bought it. This is the only van that still felt like driving a car. I also like the rugged look. The Honda was #1 but the mark up just wasnt worth it to me. The 0% financing on the Montana didnt hurt. The van has run great and after all the reviews I read about the lack of engine power....Im content and believe that its more than adequate. Get the extended warranty for peace of mind!
