  Im through with this car - 2005 Pontiac Sunfire
  By AG - August 23 - 1:43 pm

  I had an 04 but totaled it - bought an 05 and have had slew of problems. Bad brake rotors to the point of where they snapped while I was driving leaving me stranded. The engine stalls, the cd/mp3 player frequently shorts resetting my clock, the model itself affects my tires in which Ive replaced 6 in the past 21/2 years that I purchased this car. The window motor shorts leaving one of my Windows down in Atlanta during winter. Power steering flawed, trunk shorted out and wouldnt close for about three months. My gauges cross over each other in some malfunction preventing me from checking my speed/rpms. Fuel gauge backlight does not fully turn on. Everything on this car sucks!

  In 3 weeks driven 1600 miles, fuel savings have made car payment, 30 mpg. Sunfire acceleration and handling are great.

  The new 2.2 ecotec engine is very powerful, but not as economical as the old 2.2 it replaced. I feel the quality is very good and the car has a solid feel to it.

  Total Satisfaction - 2005 Pontiac Sunfire

  Although I have only owned this vehicle for a month, It is well worth the money. This car is fun to drive, stylish, and gets really good gas mileage. Right now I am getting 38 miles a gallon. Although this vehicle has a 4 cyl. engine, it drives like a 6 cyl. I enjoy this vehicle very much.

  My wife loves this car...she says she feels at home in it. I am 64" and I even fit with some comfort. These days with gas prices this car is a perfect fit with our budget(by the way...Edmunds say this cars actual value is around $11,000..we paid $8600 including tax) Good car....Great price!

  Ive had My PS going on 2 yrs this Sept. and just recently had any type of "Major Repair" (front brakes) otherwise very reliable vehicle and would definitely consider purchasing another within the next year or two.

  Pontiac Sunfire - 4 Door automatic - 2005 Pontiac Sunfire
  By Jeannie - March 24 - 7:06 am

  I really love driving my new car, I find it comfortable for drives that are not too long. The seating in long drives is not as comfortable, as the drivers seat doesnt adjust well for a short driver. My biggest problem with the car is a stalling issue, which has not been resolved in three trips back to the dealer. As it is intermittent, it never does it when the mechanics have it: however it is a constant problem for me. If this could be resolved, I would be happy with the car...however at this point I am considering trading it in on a make that has a more reliable rating, i.e. Toyota or Honda.

  By chesterr - November 2 - 7:53 pm

  It has been good solid car at a low price. Only problem I had is wiring was not installed right at factory. Engine doesnt burn oil after 73 k. Should go 200k easy. I use synthetic at least once a year
