PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on Nov 16, 2001.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER . WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED WHILE WE WERE DRIVING IN A TORRENTIAL 3-HOUR DOWNPOUR. HAD TO PULL ONTO SHOULDER AND DRIVE WITH NO FORWARD VISIBILITY UNTIL REACHING A TOWN WITH A GARAGE. THIS WAS ON HIGHWAY 77 IN SOUTH TEXAS, A VERY HEAVILY TRAVELLED ROAD. WE WERE LUCKY TO HAVE AVOIDED BEING HIT FROM BEHIND. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THE WIPER DRIVE ARM HAD COME OFF THE BALL-SHAPED STUD ON THE DRIVE CRANK. ONE OF THE TWO 5 MM SCREWS HAD COME OUT OF THE CLAMP HOLDING THE DRIVE ARM TO THE DRIVE STUD. THIS IS A SERIOUS WEAKNESS IN THIS VEHICLE AS A MORE SECURE LOCKING METHOD SHOULD BE USED FOR THIS CLAMP (I ADDED LOCKNUTS TO THE SCREWS ON MY CLAMP). THIS ARM MOUNTING UNDERGOES A LOT OF CYCLES WITH FAIRLY HEAVY ALTERNATING LOADING, AND SHOULD BE MUCH MORE POSITIVELY FASTENED THAN IT IS. I SUGGEST THAT THESE VEHICLES BE RECALLED AND A BETTER LOCKING SYSTEM ADDED TO THE WIPER DRIVE ARM. *AK.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GMDX03E7XD.

PONTIAC "CUSTOMER SERVICE" WAS NO HELP AND WAS SOMEWHAT EVASIVE WHEN I ASKED IF SHE HAD BEEN INVOLVED WITH ANY OTHER INTAKE GASKET PROBLEMS.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on May 21, 2003.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . ON THE MORNING OF MAY 21, 2003 AT APPROXIMATELY 11:25 A.M. EST, MY PREGNANT WIFE OF NINE MONTHS, AND TWO CHILDREN AGES 3 AND 6 WERE DRIVING OUR 1999 PONTIAC MONTANA MINIVAN SOUTHBOUND ON US-131 IN THE GRAND RAPIDS, MI AREA. AT APPROXIMATELY MILE MARKER 85 THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DIED FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND WITH NO APPARENT WARNING. SHE WAS TRAVELING 60 MPH IN THE FAR LEFT LANE OF A 6 LANE STRETCH OF WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE S-CURVE IN THIS AREA. WITH NO POWER TO THE VEHICLE SHE SOMEHOW MANAGED TO SAFELY MANEUVER THE VAN ACROSS THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC AND EXIT AT FRANKLIN STREET. WITH THE HELP OF A STATE TROOPER WE WERE ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE (WHICH WAS BLOCKING THE EXIT RAMP) TO A SAFE PLACE UNTIL IT COULD BE TOWED. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION BY A QUALIFIED GM DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN THE FOLLOWING DAY, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE COMPLETELY FAILED DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A FAULTY INTAKE GASKET WHICH ALLOWED DEXCOOL COOLANT TO SEEP INTO THE ENGINE AND DESTROY CRITICAL COMPONENTS. THIS IS APPARENTLY A PROBLEM THAT IS MORE THAN COMMON ON VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ENGINE AS OURS. GM HAS BEEN AWARE OF FOR SOMETIME, BUT HAS FAILED TO CORRECT VIA RECALL OR OTHER MEASURES. HAD MY WIFE NOT BEEN SWIFT AND CALM IN HER CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE THERE IS LITTLE DOUBT THAT A SERIOUS AND POSSIBLY FATAL ACCIDENT WOULD HAVE OCCURRED GIVEN THE LOCATION OF THE INCIDENT. VEHICLES TRAVELING AT 60+ MPH COME OUT OF A BLIND CURVE JUST BEFORE THIS LOCATION AND WOULD HAVE BEEN UNLIKELY TO STOP IN TIME. I WOULD LIKE TO REITERATE THAT A STATE TROOPER WAS ON THE SCENE AND DOCUMENTED THE INCIDENT AS WELL. *NLM.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 72500 miles.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on May 13, 2000.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CABLES . AFTER HAVING MY VEHICLE SERVICED TO CHANGE THE OIL AND REPLACE THE AIR FILTER, I WAS DRIVING HOME A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER. I HAD JUST EXITED FROM I-70 ONTO HIGHWAY 59 NORTH, WHEN I ACCELERATED TO PASS A SLOW MOVING PICKUP TRUCK. WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON THE PEDAL IT DID NOT RETURN TO THE NORMAL POSITION BUT REMAINED COMPLETELY OPEN. I WAS NOW DRIVING ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY WITH CONSIDERABLE TRAFFIC AND MY ACCELERATOR WAS TO THE FLOOR GOING SOMETIMES AT SPEEDS OF 80 TO 90 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER HAVING MY DAUGHTER CHECK TO SEE IF THE PEDAL WAS STUCK, I MANAGED TO GET THE VEHICLE STOPPED BY ALTERNATING BETWEEN DRIVE AND NEUTRAL AND THEN PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ONCE I HAD REACHED A PLACE WITH ENOUGH ROOM. THE VAN WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IN BRAZIL, INDIANA AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT WHEN THE AIR FILTER WAS REPLACED A CLAMP HAD NOT BEEN POSITIONED CORRECTLY AND HAD CAUSED THE LINKAGE TO BE STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION. EVEN AFTER ADVISING ANOTHER OIL SERVICE CENTER THIS CLAMP WAS AGAIN POSITIONED INCORRECTLY THE NEXT TIME THE AIR FILTER WAS CHANGED. LUCKILY, WE HAD CHECKED THIS BEFORE ANOTHER INCIDENT COULD HAPPEN. *AK.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 55000 miles. Pontiac Montana 1999 problem was reported in CARBON, IN.

I HAVE JUST TAKEN IN OUR 99 MONTANA AND HAVE LEARNED THAT I HAVE AN ENGINE GASKET LEAK. THIS WILL BE THE 2ND GASKET LEAK THE ENGINE HAS INCURRED. THE FIRST ONE WAS A HEAD GASKET AND THIS MOST RECENT GASKET IS A LOWER INTAKE. THE REASON THIS CONCERNS ME IS THAT I HAD A DEAR FRIEND HAVE AN AUTOMOBILE ISSUE WHERE HE HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. IT HAPPENED TO BE FRIDAY WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC. TOO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, WHILE HE WENT OUT FOR REPAIRS HIS VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED WHILE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HE LOST HIS FIRST SON AND HIS SECOND SON HAD BRAIN DAMAGE. THE REASON I BRING THIS UP IS BECAUSE I'VE BEEN LUCKY AS FAR AS CATCHING THESE GASKET ISSUES IN THEIR EARLY STAGES OF FAILURE. I COULD HAVE BEEN THAT GUY STUCK ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A GASKET THAT HAS FAILED, NOT ONCE BUT MAYBE TWICE. IT SEEMS OBVIOUS THAT GM HAS A SERIOUS GASKET ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE AND ARE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMER'S FAMILIES SAFETY. *JB.Mileage was 52000 miles.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Report #10060549

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2004.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . THE LAST 4 CARS I HAVE OWNED HAVE BEEN GM VEHICLES. I HAVE TRIED HARD TO BE LOYAL, WHEN IN 1998, MY 1992 OLDS ACHIEVE BLEW IT'S HEAD GASKET AT 79,000 MILES. A DEFECT THAT WAS SO COMMON ON QUAD-4 ENGINES IN THESE VEHICLES THAT MANY WERE RECALLED TO BE FIZED, BEFORE 75,000 MILES......I DIDN'T KNOW UNTIL AFTER....BY 4,000 MILES!! THE TOTAL JOB COST ME $1700USD. I DID PURCHASE A 1999 MONTANA VAN AND ANOTHER BONNEVILLE (1995) OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS. IN DEC. OF 2002 THE LOWER INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET WAS REPLACED ON MY MONTANA WITH ONLY 55,000 MILES ON IT, COST OF $388. THEN THIS PAST JANUARY, I WAS DRIVING MY 1995 BONNEVILLE AND MY HEAD GASKET BLEW. SO $1633 DOLLARS LATER, IT TURNED OUT THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY A PLASTIC UPPER INTAKE MANIFOLD THAT BURNED OUT IN THE OPENING FOR THE EGR CHECK VALVE. AS I HAVE FOUND OUT ON MULTIPLE WEB SITES, IT SEEMS THAT ON THE 3.8L SERIES II ENGINES, THAT THEIR HAVE BEEN MANY PROBLEMS WHEN GM CHANGED FROM A DIE CAST ALUMINUM PART TO THIS PLASTIC PLENUM TUB. THE PLASTIC TUB BURNS 1-2 HOLES AROUND THE EGR CHECK VALVE, WHERE THE WATER JACKETS ARE, THUS FAILING AND CAUSING COOLANT TO FILL IN THE UPPER INTAKE AND THEN BE SUCKED INTO THE ENGINE. IT SEEMS THAT GM IS WELL AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT HAS NOT RECALLED ANY PARTS. AGAIN, THIS WAS MY 2ND BLOWN HEAD GASKET, BUT SINCE THE CAR WAS A 1995 I WAS UPSET, BUT FIGURED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. NOT 10 DAYS LATER THE 1999 MONTANA, WITH ONLY 79,000 MILES ON IT, BLEW THE HEAD GASKET (THIS A 3.4 LITER ENGINE) ANOTHER $1400 LATER, AND I DETERMINED ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH. 3 DIFFERENT ENGINES IN 3 DIFFERENT CARS, WAS NO FLUKE. THAT IS WHEN I FOUND OUT ON THE INTERNET, THAT THERE WERE ALL THESE DIFFERENT ISSUES PEOPLE WERE HAVING WITH GM ENGINES. I HAVE SPEND APPROXIMATELY $5200 FIXING THIS ISSUES OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. I WANT RETRIBUTION!! GM EITHER NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THEIR MISTAKES AND MAKE GOOD, OR LOSE YET ANOTHER LIFE LONG CUSTOMER, HIS WIFE AND THEIR 3 KIDS!!!! *AK.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 79129 miles.

I HAVE NOTICED MY COOLANT LEVEL IS DOWN VERY OFTEN WITH THE "LOW COOLANT" LIGHT COMING ON, AS WELL. ACCORDING TO MY GM DEALER THE LOWER INTAKE MANIFOLD IS LEAKING COOLANT FROM MY 99 MONTANA WITH ABOUT 60K MILES. DEALER HAS INDICATED THE REPAIR OF THIS GASKET TO BE OVER $700 WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS. I HAVE OWNED ABOUT 12 CARS IN MY LIFETIME AND NOT ONE HAS HAD A PROBLEM LEAKING COOLANT OUT AROUND THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET. AFTER REVIEWING OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE, IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THIS MODEL ENGINE AND CONSUMERS SHOULD BE REIMBURSED, IF NOT FULLY, THEN PARTIALLY FOR THE REPAIRS. A $700+ REPAIR BILL IS WAY TOO MUCH TO EXPECT THE CONSUMER TO PAY OUT FOR THIS DEFECT. *AK.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 53000 miles.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 Engine And Engine Cooling Report #10069815

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 2003.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . MY 99 MONTANA (70,030 MILES BUT NEVER A PROBLEM) FAILED ON US ABOUT 15 MILES EAST OF HAGERSTOWN MD WHILE RETURNING TO PITTSBURGH FROM OCEAN CITY ON 7/13/2003. THE SHORT STORY IS THAT THE ENGINE FAILED WITH LITTLE PRIOR WARNING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THERE WAS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET, I HAVE IT AS WELL AS PHOTOS. THE LEAKING COOLANT MIXED WITH THE ENGINE OIL AND THE RESULTING EMULSIFIED COMBINATION RESULTED IN A RUINED ENGINE IN A VERY SHORT TIME. THE ENGINE HAD NEW OIL BECAUSE I CHANGED IT ON 7/5 AT 69,000 MILES AS SPECIFIED IN OWNER'S MANUAL PRIOR TO LEAVING PITTSBURGH. I STILL HAVE THE OLD OIL IN MY GARAGE AND IT IS IN GOOD CONDITION. I HAD THE VAN TOWED 180 MILES TO MY DEALER, THE POWER OF BOWSER, SO THAT THEY COULD TELL ME THAT THERE'S NOTHING THEY OR GM CAN DO FOR ME. THE LOCAL GM SERVICE REP LOOKED AT IT ON 7/17 AND SAID NO GOODWILL WARRANTY AS DID THE PEOPLE AT PONTIAC CUSTOMER RELATIONS. (1-800-PMCARES SHOULD BE 1-800-WESAYNO). THE PEOPLE GM "EMPOWERS" TO MAKE THESE DECISIONS ARE NOT TECHNICALLY TRAINED SUCH THAT THEY CAN EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED AND YET THEY MAKE THE DECISION THAT IT'S TOUGH LUCK. I WOULDN'T BE SO UPSET ABOUT THIS SITUATION IF I HAD DONE SOMETHING THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE FAILURE OF THE ENGINE. BUT, I'M A FANATIC, I CHANGE MY OIL EVERY 3K AND DO ALL THE OTHER STUFF THAT'S RECOMMENDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THERE IS NO WAY THAT A COMPETENTLY DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED ENGINE SHOULD EXPERIENCE THE TYPE OF FAILURE THAT THE ENGINE IN MY MONTANA HAD. I'VE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE THE ENGINE REPLACED AT A COST OF $4,100. I JUST PAID IT OFF IN MAY. THE FACT THAT GM HAS INTERNALLY RECOGNIZED A PROBLEM WITH THE GASKET VIA INTERNAL SERVICE BULLETINS AND DIDN'T GIVE THEIR CUSTOMERS THIS INFORMATION IS MALPRACTICE AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED. I'D BE IN JAIL IF I DID THIS IN MY WORK. WE PURSUED ACTION WITH THE BBB AUTO LINE BUT, WERE TURNED DOWN FOR AN ARBITRATION HEARING BASED ON THE MILEAGE..Mileage was 70030 miles.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on Dec 15, 2002.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . I HAD A LOCAL GM DEALER REPAIR THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET ON OUR 1999 PONTIAC MONTANA IN DEC. 2002. WE HAD TO HAVE THE WATER PUMP REPLACED ALSO AND HAVE THE COOLING SYSTEM FLUSHED AT THE SAME TIME. THE COST OF THOSE REPAIRS WAS IN THE RANGE OF $1,000 AND WAS DONE IN A VERY SATISFACTORY MANNER BY THE DEALER. THE SERVICE MANAGER KNEW EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG AS SOON AS I DESCRIBED THE SYMPTOMS. HE SEEMED TO HAVE SEEN A LOT OF THE SAME PROBLEMS FROM OTHER OWNERS. OUR CAR BEGAN TO LOSE COOLANT AND THEN THE OIL BEGAN TO LOOK ORANGE AND FINALLY THE COOLANT WAS DRIPPING ON THE GROUND. THESE PROBLEMS BEGAN ABOUT 70,000 MILES. WE ARE THE SECOND OWNERS OF THIS VAN AND BOUGHT IT FROM THE REPAIRING DEALERSHIP AS A PROGRAM, USED VEHICLE WITH 20,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I HAVE SAVED ALL OUR RECEIPTS FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED REPAIRS IN HOPE THAT GM MIGHT HAVE A RECALL FOR THESE PROBLEMS. IN MY OPINION, THE FAULT LIES WITH TEXACO AND OTHERS WHO MADE AND MANUFACTURED THE DEXCOOL COOLANT USED BY GM. JUDGING FROM THE INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET, IT SEEMS OTHER MANUFACTURERS HAVE RUN INTO PROBLEMS WITH THIS COOLANT (CATAPILLAR, CUMMINGS DIESEL.).Mileage was 70000 miles.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on Sept 15, 2002.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . MY WIFE AND I OWN A 1999 PONTIAC MONTANA. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2002 (~53000 MILES)WE NOTICED THAT THE LOW COOLANT LIGHT CAME ON. SO WE ADDED COOLANT. THEN AGAIN IN NOVEMBER THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN SO WE CONTACTED OUR PERSONAL MECHANIC SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. HE TOLD US THAT THE PLASTIC UPPER INTAKE MANIFOLD AND THE GASKET WAS BAD. HE TOLD US THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS TYPE OF ENGINE. HE SAID THAT GM DEALERS IN THE AREA TOLD HIM THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE MANIFOLD BEING MADE OF PLASTIC AND THE FACT THAT GM USES DEXCOOL COOLANT, WHICH EATS UP THE PLASTIC AND THE GASKETS. HE ALSO TOLD US THAT BECAUSE OF THIS SOME OF THE COOLANT SPILLED INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE COST OF THE REPAIRS WERE $392.57. WE NOW WILL HAVE A GOOD CHANCE OF SPENDING $2000 - $2500 ON A NEW ENGINE BECAUSE OF THE COOLANT IN THE ENGINE OIL. WE DID CALL THE DEALER WHO SOLD US THE VAN AND THEY TOLD US TO CALL PONTIAC. WE DID CALL THE PONTIAC CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER IN MICHIGAN AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THEY TOLD US THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM. WE FEEL THAT GM SHOULD STAND BEHIND THESE PROBLEMS. PLEASE RESPOND. THANKS .Mileage was 53000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GMDX03E0XD. Pontiac Montana 1999 problem was reported in KIMBALL, SD. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on June 09, 2003.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . WE HAVE A 1999 PONTIAC MONTANA THAT WE PURCHASED NEW FROM A LOCAL DEALER IN SOUTH BEND IN. I NOTICED OIL AND ANTIFREEZE GOING DOWN AND TOOK THE VAN TO A GARAGE. HE SAID THAT PONTIAC SHOULD MAKE THE REPAIRS BECAUSE THE LEAK WAS CAUSED BY A MANIFOLD GASKET PROBLEM I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND TALK TO HIM ABOUT REPAIRS. AT FIRST HE SAID THE REPAIRS WOULD BE AROUND $1500.00. I TOLD HIM THAT IT WOULD BE CHEAPER TO BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE. HE SAID PROBABLY. A REAL SMART ALECK. I TOLD HIM THAT THERE WAS, AT THAT TIME, 30,0000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. HE TALKED TO THE MANAGER AND THEY CAME UP WITH A PRICE AROUND $600.00. I TOLD THEM TO DO IT. THE FINAL PRICE WAS JUST UNDER $400.00. NOW I FIND THAT IT IS LEAKING A LITTLE AGAIN AND THE WATER PUMP IS LEAKING, TOO. I HAD A PRIVATE GARAGE CHANGE THE WATER PUMP AND PROBABLY WON'T GET THE MANIFOLD GASKET REPLACED AT THIS TIME. I ALSO HAD THE BRAKES CHECKED AND FOUND THAT THE REAR WHEEL CYLINDERS WERE LEAKING. THAT IS ANOTHER COST ON THIS 1999 PONTIAC MONTANA VAN. THE DRIVERS DOOR NEEDS A REPAIR TO SOME OF THE MECHANISM IN THE WINDOW AND IT WILL COST AROUND $500. I HAVE HEARD THAT THIS WINDOW PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH THESE VEHICLES. I HAVE REACHED THE POINT OF GETTING RID OF THE VAN AND GOING TO SOMETHING BESIDES A GM PRODUCT. THE VAN HAS 32,000 MILES ON IT NOW AND I SHOULDN'T BE SEEING ALL OF THIS HIGH DOLLAR REPAIRS ON IT. *AK.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GMDX03EXXD.

PONTIAC MONTANA 1999 car safety problem was reported on Feb 03, 2005.PONTIAC MONTANA 1999, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM . ON FEB. 3 OF 2004 WE PURCHASED A USED 1999 MONTANA. THE LOW COOLANT LIGHT WAS COMING ON SO WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY "COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG" BUT IT WAS LOW ON COOLANT. I CHECKED THIS WEB SITE AND FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT MANIFOLD GASKET FAILURE AROUND 60,000 MILES. OUR VAN HAD LESS THAN THIS SO WE KEPT OUR EYES OPEN TO WHY THIS LIGHT KEPT COMING ON AND EVEN ASKED THE DEALER TO MAKE SURE IT WASN'T LEAKING ANTIFREEZE INTO THE ENGINE. THEY SAID IT WAS LOW BUT THERE WAS NO LEAK. THEN IN FEB OF 05 WE HAD TO REPLACE THE WATER PUMP AND ONE WEEK LATER A NEW NOISE STARTED, SO WE TOOK IT BACK TO A MECHANIC WHO FOUND ANTIFREEZE LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE, $800 LATER IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING FINE. WHY CAN'T PONTIAC BE MADE TO FIX THIS OBVIOUS PROBLEM. WE NO LONGER HAVE DEX-COOL FOR ANTIFREEZE!! THE LOW COOLANT LIGHT HAD COME ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR THE WHOLE YEAR WE OWNED IT AND FINALLY WE FOUND A GOOD MECHANIC WHO KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, THE DEALERSHIP--LITHIA FORD OF BOISE--HAD "NO IDEA". IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER WARRANTY IF THEY HAD FIXED IT LAST YEAR. LEAKING INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET CAUSED ENGINE PROBLEMS. *NM.Mileage was 54500 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GMDX03E6XD.

UNFORTUNATELY THIS DID NOT CURE THE PROBLEM SINCE I HAVE LATER DISCOVERED, THE OEM INJECTORS FOR GM'S 3.4LTR ENGINES HAVE AN INHERANT DEFECT - THE MAGNET THAT IS USED TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE INJECTOR IS VERY WEAK. WHEN EVER THE INJECTOR ENCOUNTERS SMALL DIRT PARTICLES THE INJECTOR REMAINS SHUT, THEREFORE CAUSING THE CYLINDER TO MISFIRE.

DRIVING THE VAN I NOTICED THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OVER HEAT. I TURNED IT OFF AND WAITED 1 HOUR FOR IT TO COOL DOWN. STARTED IT UP AGAIN AFTER FILLING THE RADIATOR, WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING I MADE SURE THE COOLANT WAS AT THE CORRECT LEVEL. WITHIN 5 MIN THE CAR OVERHEATED AGAIN AND THIS TIME IT DIED BEFORE I COULD TURN IT OFF. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT WOULD BE BEST TO REPLACE THE ENGINE AT 4100.00 FOR THAT. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND OUT THERE ARE MANY OTHER VAN OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY USED A RUBBER SEAL WITHOUT STEEL SO THAT IT COOLANT LEAKS INTO THE ENGINE AND MIXES WITH THE OIL, AND DRIES OUT THE CAMSHAFT AND THEN IT BREAKS. IN CANADA THERE IS ALREADY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THIS REASON. THEY (MANUFACTURE) KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT WONT SAY THAT IT IS THERE FAULT. I AM ALSO LOOKING TO FIND SOMEONE TO TAKE THE CASE AS I CURRENTLY HAVE A LSWN ORNAMENT DUE TO I DON'T HAVE THE 4100 TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. *JB.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Pontiac Montana 1999 problem was reported in MANTECA, CA.
