Consumer Review Video - 2007 Pontiac G5 2.2L 4 Cyl.
The 2007 Pontiac G5 is a moderately difficult car to maintain, but shouldn’t be too hard for the experienced car owner. You will have to remove the headlight housing first in order to access the headlight. This will require the use of a few tools, and is more complicated than other models. This vehicle does not come equipped with a transmission fluid dipstick. Instead it includes just a fill cap, which is a problem to access, and you will need to take this vehicle to a dealer to check the fluid level. In order to access the center brake light, you will have to remove many fasteners and a lining. The tools necessary may not be readily available for a repair.
Some things are more reliable to maintain on the 2007 Pontiac G5. Both the fuse boxes are easily accessible on this vehicle. You only have to remove one cover to access either set of fuses, allowing you to troubleshoot electrical problems easily. Accessing the oil drain plug is easy to do on this vehicle, as you only have to reach beneath the vehicle for access. This will allow you to change your oil much easier. Checking the oil level is easy to do, as the oil dipstick is easily accessible in the engine bay.
