Consumer Description

1995 PONTIAC GRAND AM SE OVERHEATING PROBLEMS SINCE I GOT THIS CAR. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 10 TIMES. OVER $4500 WORTH OF REPLACED PART- INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS, BEARINGS, HEAD GASKETS, THERMOSTATS, WATER PUMPS ETC. YET ONCE AGAIN IT HAS OVERHEATED AND IS AGAIN IN THE SHOP. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE I KNOW HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. ALSO HAVE CHECKED OUT SEVERAL COMPLAINT WEB SITES AND LOW AND BEHOLD IT SEEMS THE REST OF THE PONTIAC WORLD HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. MY SUGGESTION TO PONTIAC IS TO STOP PRODUCTION OF ALL PRODUCTION OF NEW VEHICLES AND WORK ON FIXING THE PROBLEM BEFORE SPREADING IT EVEN MORE LIKE A VIRUS.*AK
