My fiancee and I bought a 2003 Grand Am GT Coupe in 2006. So far, we've had to replace the AC Compressor, turn signal relay, alternator, serpentine belt twice, some window trim, oil pan gasket, intake manifold gasket, AC header unit, wiper control stalk, and some other random small stuff. And, the recalls, but that was free. Fortunately, it was all covered under the warranty we bought, but we're getting rid of it once the warranty is up. It's been a nightmare. I'm a reasonably handy guy car-wise, so I've maintained it properly. My fiancee does most of the driving, and she's hardly a speed demon or rough driver. Just not at all impressed with the quality of it (especially compared to my 200+k miles Toyota MR2 and 1990 Toyota Celica with 261k miles that still runs great). It's not a terrible car... but I'd have trouble recommending it to someone. Especially without a warranty.
