Overview & Reviews
All models get a tilt steering wheel and an electric trunk release as standard equipment. Three new exterior colors debut, while the three-speed automatic transmission gets dropped from the lineup.
- Lack of refinement, overdone styling, old-tech engineering, sloppy handling, poor crash-test scores, uncomfortable cabin.

Disapointment - 2002 Pontiac Sunfire
By DM - March 9 - 9:20 amThis is my wifes car and I loathe the day I have to drive it. It handles like a top heavy SUV, the seats have no support and no comfort adjustments, and it has no power to accelerate unless you push it off a cliff (Ive considered it). The Insurance Institue of America provides crash ratings for all vehicles. If the impact is over 40mph on this car expect death and or dismemberment for all passengers.

Looks good, thats about it! - 2002 Pontiac Sunfire
By Al209340 - June 17 - 2:00 amWhen I got my Sunfire I was really happy to get it, but since time as gone by, I have been disappointed with this car. One of the issues is the Headlights. They don’t put out much light when on high beam. This car squeaks and rattles down the road, and it has TONS of interior problems, including the seat not being able to adjust without breaking, and controls sticking. I had problems with paint pealing and problems starting the car. Plus this car bounces all over the place on uneven or bad roads. A person who owned a 1996 Sunfire told me not to buy Sunfire, now I wished I took his advice. He told me he just has had is 5th major safety recall notice on his 1996 Sunfire. Yikes!
