2001 Pontiac Aztek review from North America
"I would not buy this car again as the cost to maintain is too high"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioner has been replaced three times and is currently broken again.
Lights go off and on while driving, but do not stay off. Due to lights not staying off diagnosis has not been available.
Gas must be kept at 1/2 tank or better to run car. If gas falls below 1/2 tank car dies and will not run. Mechanic could not diagnose problem as car started after towing by wrecker.
Driver's window will not stay up.
Mirror fell off while car was setting in the driveway.
General comments?
In its defense the car handles well on any surface and can pass anything on the road when it is running.
