Pontiac Repair Buford, GA

Common Issues With Pontiac Vehicles
Pontiac vehicles experience intake manifold gasket leaks on 3.1L, 3.4L, and 3.8L V6 engines. Transmission pressure control solenoid failures can lead to harsh shifting in the Grand Prix and G6. Power steering pump leaks and cooling fan motor failures are also frequent. Owners of the Vibe often report catalytic converter issues and minor electrical glitches. High-mileage models frequently require suspension work, specifically front struts and control arm bushings.
