The Grandam issue they said was pretty common also.
I had a 98 Grand Am also. Had it for several years. Only issue was an ignition cylinder recall. Car worked fine then, and still runs fine now with a new owner, and has almost 200K miles on it now. So we have 2 board members with no trouble out of them, and one member with 3 engine changes per year - sounds like it might be that particular car/owner.


For the lemon list - has to be a 240sx. It is the only car that can take a perfectly normal guy, and turn him into a complete ricer each and every time (Simon says...).
