Vehicle report
1991 PONTIAC 6000
This model year
What the record shows
The 1991 Pontiac 6000 is a midsize car, and the 12th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1980 to 1992.
The EPA rated three configurations: engines from 2.5-litre four-cylinder to 3.1-litre six-cylinder, front-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on regular gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 20 to 22 mpg depending on which one you have.
The federal record holds 6 owner complaints and 1 service bulletin for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
