so the car started to buck and skip. did a compression test and found that #2 had 0 compression. i called the dealer because it was 2000 miles out of extended warranty. they would not help me so i told them to sod off. i owned the car for 6 months when this happened. i found the exhaust valve spring broken in two. tore off the rear head and sent it to a machine shop to check for bent valve. head was ok with no cracks. resealed. spent 6 days repairing. too much work. i will never ever own a Pontiac ever again. i called Pontiac to see if they would help. they told me i would have to bring it to a dealer. they said they would only maybe cover a small portion . i told them i would never buy another Pontiac as long as i live. these cars are known for electrical and engine issues. usually both together. don't buy these pieces of crap. they may be fast but they have to run to be fast
