I bought the car oct 2003 it had 23000 miles on it and then when it hit 30000 miles that's when trouble started my husband went to check on his brother and turned the car off and was off for 1 hour and went to start the car and it wouldn't stay running took it to the local repair man and he worked on it and nothing 250.00 dollars later he hauled it the gm dealer in independence ks. Where they said it was the anti theft device had me locked out and the had to replace the module. 480.00 later. Now when I drive a distance my check engine light comes on and my car acts like it tries to cut out and shifts hard and jerks. And my tract off light stays on now all the time. My last grand prix had 160000 miles on it before it started acting up. My local repair man said that I need to replace the brain module and all my problems well stop. And now when it rains my car feel up with water on the passenger side floor board 2 inches right now so if there is a recall on this car it needs to be the whole car. Right now the car has 51000 miles.
2001 Pontiac Grand Prix visibility complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 20 of 20, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The front passenger side window would not go up. The regulator had to be replaced at a cost to the owner. Then antifreeze started to leak onto the engine. The problem has not been repaired to date. *jb *sc the intake manifold gasket was replaced and the fuel pressure regulator was replaced.
I own a 2001 pontiac grand prix gt, 4 door. On three separate occasions the motor on the automatic windows has gone out on three different windows. All three times the motor was replaced by a pontiac dealership. The last time was november 2004 and the warranty was expired. Because this was an ongoing problem I fought the $500 bill with the dealership and eventually gm fixed the window at no cost to me. A friend of mine has a government issued pontiac, same year, make & model. She has had two window motors replaced.
Driver side window failure. Window does not move. Will require replacement of regulator & motor.
Driver and passenger side front and rear windows have had to be replaced within 1 year. When vehicle was taken in for first window, they could not "duplicate" the problem, worked fine for them, but not 2 days later after the warranty was up, the window would not roll up or down. Since then 2 more windows have been replaced.

Windshield has distortion horizontally through the drivers viewing area. This was present on the original as well as the replacement. Severe distortion was also present on each side of the original windshield and along the lower edge of the replacement windshield. Distortion is causing impaired vision as well as driver fatigue due to headache and nausea.
While driving in a heavy down pour when wipers were needed, passenger's side wiper arm stopped working, at first then restarted working off set, causing passenger's side wiper arm to fight with driver's side wiper arm, resulting in poor driver's visibility. Vehicle was taken to dealer.*ak
