2002 pontiac grand am? I have the 2.2 ecotec engine in my grand am, and have noticed that the v6 had alot of problems with the dex-cool antifreeze, and there was a lawsuit. The 2.2 wasn't listed. 2 months ago my low coolant light came on as I was merging on the freeway to go to my brothers 75 miles away, I merged right off and went to a gas station and they checked things out and just topped it off and said everything looked fine, and it was ok to keep going since the car was running fine and not hot. It ran fine all the way there and my bro checked it when I got there, it was fine not hot at all and no leaks. Got home didn't run hot, never has. I just want to get it flushed since we are getting into the 90 degree weather. the gas station put in all weather antifreeze, and it was the same color as what was in there. Not red like the dex-cool is. The car only has 57,000 miles on it, I have had it for about 5 yrs. not since brand new, I do change the oil every 3000 miles, but haven't flushed the radiator yet. Its been a great car.
