Anyone know the model of the Goodyears that were originally on the '02 Grand Prix GT? I've since replaced my originals but was curious as to what they where.Thanks.

I have an opportunity to purchase a 2003 Grand Prix GT (loaded with all the options) for $5,200. The car has 105,410 miles (driven by a sales person). The car is in good to very good shape (well taken car of). I'm just trying to get a feel if others think this is a good buy or not. Since the warranty is no longer valid, I'm more worried about mainatenance costs. It will only be used for a car to drive to and from work (maybe 500 miles a month). Thank you. Shawn

Replying to: gmfan007 (Aug 30, 2005 1:39 am) The car is being looked at by a mechaninc next week to give it a once over. It also just had new brakes and a complete safety check about a month ago and all passed. I'm still having it re-checked again. I think based on all that I read, reviews, comments, etc. its a good buy. I think any used car is a gamble espeically without any warranty, but I think all things point to a good buy. Shawn |

I purchased a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix GT sedan less than a year ago---it had 36,500 miles on it at that time and was a private party, not rental return, trade to the dealer. It now has about 44,000. This is my first American car in more than 20 years and after reading about how American car quality had improved thought I would "buy American". I did not get the extended warranty for the Pontiac but am now regretting that decision. In the last six weeks, I've had to replace 3 of the 4 window regulators at nearly $465.00 each. In all three instances, the window was up then came half way down and within a minute or two, fell all the way. Luckily, the glass did not break. The dealer could not get the first one fixed timely so I took it to a local repair chain where I've since taken it for the other two replacement regulators. The dealer was going to charge nearly $100.00 more for each and the warranty was the same as the local repair chain. How common is this problem? The service rep at the dealer was very non-committal saying he's had many cars like mine that have never had any window regulators replaced but did admit that he has also replaced all 4 in a few cars. He gave no reason why some were and others were not problematic. He said there was not a GM recall going on for this problem but he was most willing to service my car when needed including the next repair of the last regulator should that be necessary. Is any one aware of a recall or related campaign focused on window regulator failures? Have many/any of you experienced this kind of multiple window regulator failure over a short period of time? Have you been able to get any satisfaction from your dealership (management or service department) on costs of repair, reimbursement of costs for past repairs, anything like that for problems with a used car purchase? Have you been able to get any satisfaction from the Zone Rep or some other GM higher-up as to the same questions asked above? I know I am at somewhat of a disadvantage because I did not have the repairs made at the dealership, but it is more that the problem exists than where I took it for repair that should be the focal point of the resolution. Any comments, suggestions, input, information or advice on what you may have go through related to this problem and your remedies will be appreciated. Thanks!
