I've had my GP 2004 for 4 years now and I have little problems with. It rides nice and i drive it through some wicked snow storms in winter. Not much more to say that I have enjoyed it!

I have a '04 GT2 and am happy with the reliablilty of it, but that's about it. It only has 32k miles with only one problem. Had to replace the power steering rack and electrical switch in the steering column, all at around $700. That said, if my wife would agree to get rid of it (it's actually her car) I would in a heart beat. I'm only 5'8" and have less than an inch of head room. The center stack is too thick making it feel cramped. The ride is not that great, and the power is not as strong as my Hyundai Sonata. The interior has many parts pieced together, allowing a multitude of rattles and squeaks. It's not a bad car, but there are definitely better out there.

My 2004 Grand Prix Check Gas Cap light keeps coming on...I have tried to clear it as the manual describes - drove the mileage indicated it is supposed to clear by, but it just keeps coming on and it's really starting to annoy me. Does anyone know what needs to be done to correct this problem?

I appreciate the feedback. You have to remember that compared to my Malibu, the GP seems like a Rolls at this point. I drove the car and it's remarkaby tight for 65k mi. Thanks again for your reply,

I admit I've scratched my head over GM's decision - but I guess Buicks will sell better in China. Personally, I'd have dumped Chevy as a trash brand (excl. Camaro/Corvette - which could stand brand-free IMHO). Develop out the G6/GP as sport-oriented import contenders and introduce a mass-appeal new-fuel people's car a la the original Beetle. (Volt in production? I don't think so). Pontiac is a proud American name, so this tree-hugging car lover (oxymoronic? not necessarily.) thinks GM could have appealed to the next gen by evolving Pontiac into a brand that represents the best of nature... the Pontiac Fire, Sun or Star, maybe, in homage to the -fires and -birds of yore.

Remote Start

I'm wanting to purchase a remote start w/ keyless entry for my 2004 GP GT2. I've talked to two retailers so far and both are trying to sell me an extra relay module of some kind. Is this really necessary? One mentioned it has to do with an antitheft immobilizer on the car. Does this car have that? There is nothing inside the car "advertising" anti-theft anything.
