2000 Pontiac Grand Am SE 2.4 from North America
Summary:
Don't expect to get over 100000 miles!
Faults:
Bad hub, replaced with aftermarket hub, won't talk to the computer so traction control and ABS will not work and light is on all the time.
Car stalls randomly (or not so randomly) It just shuts off going down the road.
Replaced coils, brain, plugs, wires, ignition and it still does it. Go about 5 miles then dies 45 minutes later will start up an go another 3-5 miles then the same. If you can get it running again it acts as if it is running on 2 cylinders. Sitting at dealership for 3 days now, they go out and say it runs fine and no problems on their test drive. told them to have one of their techs take it home so they could be with the car when it dies, of course they don't want to do that! After looking over the net I think I will suggest to them a new crank position sensor and see what they say. Have issues with the directional/hazard. This vin number does not fall under the recall.
General Comments:
If the dealerships could get some people in who know how to fix a car, just not read a computer it would be helpful.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
