1999 Pontiac Grand Prix gtp 3.6 supercharged from North America
Summary:
This car peforms well, but falls apart quickly
Faults:
Car would stop running while driving, from purchase to 5,000 miles, then fixed itself?
Clear coat paint cracked and peeled on hood and top after 2 yrs.
Window mechanism on 2 doors broken off at end...$1800 parts.
Panel below back passenger door fell off.
Water dripping inside car by fan.
Blower fan went out... very short wires under there.. not a fun job...150 for part.
Tcs, ABS and cruise computer went out at 50,000 miles...$900 for new computer brain.
Reflective digital read out freaked out when it got hot after about 2 years...has never been the same since.
Rearview mirror fell off.
$2700 in parts, not 2 mention labor, just 2 get the car in order 2 sell... how much is a 99 worth now?
General Comments:
I like the way these cars look, handle and perform.
They get good mileage.
Comfortable also.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

Hey, I have a 99 Monte Carlo, and my car still misfires after I changed my plugs and wires. My computer showed no codes either, so I don't know where the misfire is coming from. I heard it might be a fuel injector, so I am going to try that. If you find out what is causing your Grand Prix to misfire, please let me know. Thanks (If I find out any info, I'll let you know.
