NOT an ugly ducking... - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By Dave Barber - December 27 - 2:00 amSure, its easy to bash Pontiac for what most consider to be ugly, weird, or bizarre styling. But it grows on you, and after owning one for nearly a year, I have concluded it is on of the best values out there. Weve had NO mechanical problems, there are no rattles or squeaks and it tows our camper (equipped with towing package) with ease.

Unique, Reliable,Affordable - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By NEBTEK2002 - October 25 - 6:10 pmMy wife and I loved the concept car and wanted the production model from Day 1. We test drove a 2001 GT,loved that one but resisted it until we could travel 30 mi. to see this "basic" 2002 with fewer miles and a lower pricetag. With Azteks, basic doesnt mean stripped. We dont have ONstar, dual A/C controls, power seats; but we do have most everything else. We used to be Chrysler minivan owners. This one is has a tighter body than any of the 3 Chrysler products weve owned. It rides better than the standard Caravan, handles better, and the transmission has none of the Chrysler "hunting" tendencies on long upgrades. Other than replacing a ruined tire, no repairs at all thus far.

The swiss army knife of SUVs - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By Yellow Aztek owner - October 25 - 2:00 amIve tried a little of everything in my Aztek... the AWD is really slick, and really keeps the car moving in the snow. The camping package now includes a sun canopy, and the aztek handles great on the curvey roads. The console/cooler is great because i can use it everyday for work. The styling with the 17" wheels is now outstanding, and its fun to have other aztek drivers honk and wave at you. There is plenty of room to swallow luggage, and the sliding cargo tray makes other SUV owners jealous. If you get Onstar you can call your friends on the road and tell them how much fun youre having! My Aztek has felt very solid over bumpy roads.

Highly recommended! - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By mavisbean - October 21 - 2:00 amI absolutely LOVE this vehicle! It feels & drives like a much more expensive SUV. Its very roomy and comfortable and the passengers in the back have plenty of leg room.

White Aztec - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By bluewaves - October 16 - 8:53 pmReplaced rear hatch shocks, brake safety switch, front passenger side wheel axle, thermostat, rear defrost doesnt work and hatch is hard to close. Fixing things costs a lot of money because you have to go to a dealer. I was better off trading it.

fun - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By Tori9299 - July 17 - 10:00 amI love my Tek it is so much fun. Im upset about the gas cap I wish they would have made a cover for it. I do also have a problem with the trunk release it stinks, the dealer is still not able to fix it.

The Tank - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By robob - May 3 - 10:00 amI purchased this vehicle as a leftover 2001 while I was looking for a 2003 Vibe. I was able to get $3,000 in rebates and $3,160 off the list price. I took a trip to Daytona Beach, Florida last month and the comfort was excellent with an abundance of room for everything. As the owner of a Trans Am, I say it could use about 35 more horsepower but the mileage would suffer. The trip average was 22.1 mpg overall with a high of 25.2 on one tank with the speed kept below 65 mph. Start looking at 75 mph and that figure will drop to the high 22s. Again, if you can get someone in one the features will win them over.

Off the Beaten Path. - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By Krovas - April 2 - 4:03 amHave had my 02 Aztek for a few months. Purchased at 54k for $8000 even. A few initial repair issues (wheel hubs/bearings) that the dealer took care of. Decent mileage overall for a vehicle of this kind, but truly excellent on the highway. Possibly the most comfortable SUV ever made; a four hour drive feels like a ten minute trip to the supermarket. Interior design more than makes up for funky exterior styling. Somewhat irritating hatch release mechanism. Sufficient power for itself, but I probably wouldnt try towing anything with it. AWD performance is terrific. Overall, its looks arent the Azteks only eccentricity, but Ill bet youll forget all about them if you drive one.

A car that makes me happy - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By Apache - March 15 - 10:00 amMy wife and I average one new car purchase a year. I have to say that of all the cars we have owned, the Aztek has quickly become my favorite. Because of poorly delivered marketing, it is possible to get great deals on one of the best bargains available today in the auto world.

Dependable Alternative - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
By tjhbama - January 16 - 2:00 amI traded my Suburban for my Aztek. Best economics trade ever... I have 52K miles on my 2002, and have had no mechanical problems, and get 20/25 city and highway. Dont have the space of the suburban (9 passengers), but have room for 5 adults and luggage for same. I tow a 8 utility trailer for recreation, and love the flexibility of flipping rear seats down, or up, or taking them out easily. Cargo space is nice in the rear, with 48" width for hauling lumber for those home improvement projects. Drivers seat cover replaced under warranty last year.
