  • 2003 Montana Ext. minivan in Illinois - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    We love our 2003 Montana. It has been excellent in all aspects. We have never had any problems - mechanical or otherwise. This is our second Pontiac Minivan and we will be purchasing our third very shortly. We recommend this year and model to everyone!

  • Most appealing minivan - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    We find this minivan to be smartly styled compared to most minivans, very comfortable on the inside, and the engine is responsive. If you compare prices for what you actually pay versus sticker price, this beats them all. Easy to reconfigure seating, double side doors, keyless entry, very nice features. Service department much better than past GM dealerships.

  • AVOID! - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    Bought the AWD because we were moving out to the country. It was a company lease return, impeccably maintained. As soon as the warranty expired, we IMMEDIATELY suffered the infamous GMC intake manifold gasket debaucle. Since then, nothing but problems, mostly with the wheel hubs, bearings, and ABS/AWD sensors. Turns out a vehicle named "MONTANA" with AWD cant handle a bumpy gravel road. Worst vehicle weve ever owned... period.

  • Depressing - 2003 Pontiac Montana

    Ours is a 2001, has 22000 miles on it. What has gone wrong? Where do I begin. The oil pan leaked and needed repair after 4500 miles; the power slider was recalled - "repaired" and then had to be repaired again at 6000 miles; the engine leaked antifreeze around 9000, needing new hoses; the transmission overheated while towing an ALUMINUM fishing boat (oh yeah, we have the "towing" package), and the thing squeaks and rattles so bad we sometimes think some of the structural welds have failed. We will never return to a GM minivan. The Odyssey or new Quest look good for us.

  • Only if you must - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    I have owned 2 of these vehicles. I had a 1997 model that was nothing but trouble and decided to give GM a second try by purchasing a second van from them. Biggest mistake I have made in major purchases. Not even 10000 miles in and the intake valve needed replaced. The brakes are squeeling and the front end is making some weird rubbing noise that the dealer has had no luck locating. Oh, the glove box latch has been broken 3 times already. I wont be purchasing another GM vehicle for quite some time. Next van purchase will be a Honda or Toyota.

  • Nice Family Vechicle - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    This is a nice family van. The DVD player is great for the kids, especially on longer rides. We have the cordless headsets, so we can listen to the radio while they watch the movie. The dual slding doors are a must.

  • bummer - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    an example why GM is having trouble selling cars without steep discounts -- a real disappointment. Needed a new manifold gasket at 40,000 miles, trim is falling part, one window wont close, power window grinds, etc., etc.

  • 2003 Montana Luxury AWD - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    Very Happy except for storage space in the front seating area. Fun to drive, economical and spacious.

  • Small Problems from the Start - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    Great deal when you factor in both the Montana Vision and regular factory rebates. Walked away with the MV FWD for less than $21K after GM card maximum credit allowance. Overall build is less than desirable - have had door handle, rattle and lug cap problems in the first month plus horrible warranty service from a local Pontiac dealership. Still couldnt pass up the overall low price when compared to the Odyssey.

  • Great Van - 2003 Pontiac Montana
    By -

    Fantastic Van. Really smooth, quiet and fuel efficient. Much nicer than the Toyota.
