Pontiac Grand Prix Reliability And Durability: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2006 | 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
excellent full 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2006 | 4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
J.D. Power gave this thing a half dot higher in initial quality than the Honda Accord of the same year. I have already put over 40,000 miles on it, and have had no trouble what-so-ever. full 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2005 | 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Rock solid, even my older ones were real respectable. Would recommend any GM car powered by the 3800 series II or III. These motors are bulletproof. full 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2005 | 4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I have owned the car for over 2 years and it has only been in the shop for warranty repairs 4 times. full 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2004 | 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Never had any major repair problems with my prior Pontiac Grand Prix. full 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2004 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 260hp 3.8L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It can handle aggressive driving and high mileage, while maintaining its youthful feel. Maintenance is low and more affordable, because I can make many of the repairs myself with my limited knowledge of car repair. full 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2002 | 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Terrible. Broke down (transmission) after 88k miles. Besides that it was costing $2k a year to run. full 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
2002 | 2dr Coupe 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
I chose the Grand Prix for its exceptional 3.8 V6 and its durable 4 speed automatic transmission. The duo will provide hundreds of thousands of miles of use. full 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix review |

2006 | 4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The engine is great, but the AT was not up to the task for the V8 FWD car. After rebuilding transmision, added an aux trans cooler, and this helped immensly. full 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix review |
