What owners wrote
Several days prior to engine overheating experienced electrical affecting the radio -- then engine overheated requiring vehicle to be towed -- two more time that same week after being repaired each time the engine overheated -- on third time mfg. Replaced engine completely. Three weeks after new engine installed the electrical problems with radio reoccurred as well as interior & exterior lights flickering followed a few days later with the "new" engine overheating. In repair shop now for fourth repair.
2000 pontiac montana intake gasket failed...I've read all the other complaints and just wanted to add mine. I called GM and they said they did not have any complaints relative to this problem, and there was no recall either. I have never used anything but dexcool in this van, now it is going to cost me to have it fixed for following directions....now I understand why pontiac is being dropped by GM they would not be able to pay all the repair bills if the owned up to their mistake...goodbye pontiac!!!!!!!!
