Grand Am SE V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 79,980 miles

I have a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am I bought it used with 10,900 miles on. Recently my engine light came on and I had it diagnosed at two different places, I was told that I need to rebuild or replace the transmission. I called the Pontiac manufacturing company to get some help on this since I only had the car 1 Year. The cost to repair is $1900.00 or replace @ $2900.00. I was told that this was a premature condition in the transmission and that was a manufacturer defect in the transmission. But instead of getting any help from the dealership or the manufacturer I am stuck with a car that has a bad transmission, bad window and I have to change the coolant in this car soon or I'll have Coolant problems too. You see on the doors and windows of the dealerships THAT OUR TOP PRIORITY IS THE CUSTOMER AND TO SATISFY THE CUSTOMERS. THATS A BUNCH OF S.... THEY DON'T TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS THEY JUST WANT TO RIP US OFF. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER PONTIAC AGAIN FROM THEM OR ANYONE ELSE. IF THEY STAND BEHIND THEIR CARS THEN I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE REPLACING MY TRANSMISSION AT 80,000 MILES ESPECIALLY WHEN THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN DRIVEN HARD. I WILL START BUYING FOREIGN MADE CARS SINCE THEY STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS AND KEEP THEIR CUSTOMERS HAPPY.
