2001 Pontiac Grand Am SE 4 door 3.4 V6 from North America
Summary:
Avoid buying, and if you own it, trade it in before the cam shaft cracks!
Faults:
There is a major problems with the INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET in the 3.1/3.4 V6 engines built from 1995-2002; it is cheap design and leaks.
My first leak was at 35K, exterior oil leak showed on the driveway, second now, and it is going to be repaired this week. GM says that there is a fix for it, so I guess they know this problem is real, and I was told otherwise and I believed it too, but yesterday I found this site...
General Comments:
Car looks good, and when buying it I thought it would a good quality car and last long on the road; now I'm looking to trade it in.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
