2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT 3.4L with Ram Air from North America
Summary:
I love it!
Faults:
Had to have the fuel pump replaced.
Clicking noise in the car on the passenger side when turning the brights on and off. Haven't figured out where it's coming from yet.
Coolant leaks--no problems yet. Have to pour more in every few months.
The 'change oil' light comes on every 1,000 miles after I get the oil changed.
My brakes vibrate and I've had the rotors turned once, but I'm pretty hard on the brakes so I'm not blaming it on the manufacturer.
General Comments:
I walked onto the dealership lot and immediately fell in love with the car I bought last year (2003). It had 36,000 miles on it and has gained a lot more with all the trips I make back and forth to Florida from Indiana.
The only major thing I've had wrong with the car is the fuel pump went out around 50,000 miles, which I kind of expected because most cars have something go wrong with them around that time.
This car has been in four car accidents, none of which were my fault--honest! One in which it was almost totaled when rear-ended a month after I bought it. I've had no problems with it even after all that.
All in all, I love my car and a lot of heads turn when I drive by--could be because I've fixed it up quite a bit...
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Just a guess. But I think that clicking noise you hear when you turn the brights on or off is the fog lights turning on and off. Not a 100% sure, but I think that is the issue. Because if you just turn the fog lights on and off from the switch you get the same noise.
