I bought this car in december of 1999, i beleive that the car was in an accident before i bought it, because the driver side door does not have the labels on the door for the weight or tire pressure, all it has is a parts number sticker a white lable. i have asked the pontiac dealer about it and they said that some come with just that label. i payed $16.000 for the car and beleive that the car was in an accident prior to purchased date. i have had the paint peel off the hood shortly after buying it and now peeling on the roof over windsheild. but with the sticker off the door i belive that i was taken. i still owe $9.000 in payments. i also think that it was a lemon, because on the winsheild is a sticker that says sunset pontiac satisfaction, a round sticker on the driver side of windsheild. i have never seen another sticker like this on any other vechicle. | |||
