Pontiac Grand Am Engine Safety Report | May 06, 2011
Reported on May 06, 2011
| MY HUSBAND AND I HAD JUST MADE IT INTO THE CITY AFTER A 1 AND A HALF HOUR DRIVE. AFTER DRIVING AROUND TOWN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR OUR CAR, 99 PONTIAC GRAND AM, SHUT OFF. WE SAT FOR A BIT AND TRIED IT AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. BUT IT KEPT DOING IT SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY. WE THOUGHT IT OVERHEATED BUT THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE READ 200 DEGREES. HE CHANGED BOTH O2 SENSORS, CAM SHAFT, ALTERNATOR, WATER PUMP, PUT ON A USED FUEL PUMP. WE WERE THINKING THAT IT MIGHT BE THE FUEL PUMP, BUT ARE UNSURE. THE POSSIBLE PROBLEMS WE HAVE CAME UP WITH ARE THE FUEL PUMP SINCE IT'S USED, THE CADILLAC CONVERTER BECAUSE IT SMELLS BAD AT TIMES, LIKE WHEN WE GO UP HILL, OR AS I WAS READING ALL THE PROBLEMS PEOPLE WERE HAVING WITH THERE 99 PONTIAC GRAND AM VEHICLES, WOULD BE THE INTAKE GASKET OR THE ABS LIGHT THAT GOES OFF AND COMES ON WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT. I HAVE SPENT ALOT OF MONEY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR AND I NEED HELP. *TR | |
