I hate my 99 Pontiac Grand AM it has been a peice of sh*t since I got it in 02 I have replaced the crapy plastic window peices that cost $40 a peice "dealership only part" the brakes go out every 3 months it wont take gas when its hot. The radio/cd player went out, water pump, thermostat, Temp sensor. EGR valve, the trunk leaks, alternator...twice. the power steering pressure line... thats $80 because it has "variable steering" what ever that means and the pump.....twice. weel bearings...3 times. window moters 3 of them waiting on the fourth one to go anytime now. the presure cap on the res. cross threaded and has to be pryed off with a screw driver. and countless other things im to pissed to remember!!!!!!! but now the damn intake manifold gasket decided to blow out of the blue and I have water in my oil I'm done with this peice of sh*t im going to push it off a cliff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
