Cons: How would you improve 2005 Pontiac SV6?
The sliding doors stink!! Came open twice driving with kids in the car! Been in for repair under warrenty six times.

2005 Pontiac SV6 Review:
I am SCARED to death to drive this van. It is unsafe. The power sliding doors do not latch properly and have opened twice while driving. Kids lean on the doors all the time and I am so afraid to put my kids in the middle captains chairs. BEWARE of this van!! Dealer working to help. GM not any help so far and not fixing the problem. I have many hours logged in the waiting room just to return the next month with the same problem. I have been a loyal GM customer for 25 years and this is the second GM Pontiac Montana I have owned (loved the first one), but I may not be now!!
