1993 Pontiac Grand am problems
The Pontiac Grand Am is a car model that was produced by Pontiac in various years between 1973 and 2005. Produced as a RWD mid-size car on the LeMans GM A platform in its first two generations, the Grand Am name was reused for a FWD compact car for its last three generations.
The platform actually began development intended to be the next generation GTO, but the muscle car era was drawing to a close. So, Pontiac decided to make this model America's answer to European luxury|sports sedans. The Grand Am (GA) name was derived from two other Pontiacs; "Grand" signifying Grand Prix luxury, and "Am" for Trans Am performance.
These first generation GAs had some innovative features, including a deformable urethane nose (an evolution of the Endura bumper pioneered on the 1968 GTO), and was one of only three GM cars (Olds Cutlass Salon, Chevy Monte Carlo S) to debut radial-ply tires (RTS - Radial Tuned Suspension) as standard equipment. The intermediate sized Grand Am was canceled in 1980 when it was replaced by the Pontiac 6000.
A compact-sized Grand Am, based on the GM N-platform, was released in 1985, replacing the Pontiac Phoenix. It became Pontiac's best selling car and was later replaced by the Pontiac G6, so named as it was intended to be the 6th generation of the Grand Am.
All 1973–1975 Grand Ams were built in Pontiac, Michigan at Pontiac's main assembly plant. The 1978-1980 Grand Ams were built in Pontiac, Michigan at Pontiac's main assembly plant and in Atlanta, Georgia at GMAD Lakewood. All Grand Ams between 1985 and 2005 were built in Lansing, Michigan at the Lansing Car Assembly.

Jason Dickinson 2024-10-20
I purchased my Grand Am 3 years ago. Although it has only 107,000 miles, I have had to make several repairs including rotors, brakes, front struts, shocks, engine overheating and faulty cooling fan. I believe that these issues are unacceptable for a car with such low mileage. In my opinion, the Pontiac Grand Am has very poor build quality and is not reliable. Therefore, I would not recommend it to anyone.
Guido Connelly 2024-09-02
This car is not recommended due to its poor condition and numerous issues. It had severe steering problems, a power-steering fluid leak, and even shut off on its own. Although it had low mileage and an attractive exterior and interior design, it required significant repairs. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this car to anyone.
Ewell Hills 2024-08-25
You have a 3.3L V6 and bought it with 94,500 miles on it. You changed the oil, tran fluid, and air filter when you bought the car. However, about 6,000 miles later, the car started running poorly. The transmission slips in 2 gears, the fuel pump needs to be replaced, and there are about 10 other frequent on and off noises that occur. It's understandable that you're frustrated with the situation, and we're sorry to hear that you've had a negative experience with your Pontiac vehicle. Please let us know if there's anything we can do to help.
