    Fun to drive! Best feature is gas milage: 34 miles on the highway. Roomy for boxes, and comfortable seats.

    I bought this car 4 years ago with 20,000 miles on it and it is up to about 110,000. So far the only failures were a belt tensioner ($100 fix) and two of the digital display lights in the radio went out. The car runs like the day I bought it. Mechanically, it seems indestructible. The body and paint are both solid too. I tend to neglect the body and on the rare occasion I wash and polish it, it always looks like it great. Not only is it well built, but it is very comfortable. With some years on the Vibe name now, more and more reviews are from people with 200k+ miles and I hope to be one of them. When the day comes to replace this, I only hope its twin, the Toyota Matrix, is still around.

    I bought mine in July 2006 and have had no problems so far (except for the front window bolt recall replacement which GM took care of). I drove from New York to California with this car. I absolutely love my Vibe.

  • Good Vibes - 2004 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    Ive wanted this car every since the first brochure came out. Ive found my hatch remote unavailable and the middle compartment will not stay closed. It is made of cheap plastic and will not stay latched. To the dealer I go in less than 2 months to get the remote reprogrammed and the plastic compartment fixed. I drive 80 miles in a day and wanted an economical car. I fill up every 3 - 4 days because of the small tank and I dont drive 55. My paint is already chipping from the rocks. Suggestion: Get the clear coat put on your new car. Im still happy with my vibe. It is fun to drive and with having dogs, the hard plastic in the back is awesome!

  • Great Little SUV! - 2004 Pontiac Vibe

    This awd model replaced a awd subaru. We have had no problems whatsoever, in fact we liked it so much that we bought another one (not awd) this december. We have always had a large car (cadillac) but we felt the difference in the ride was far outweighed by the convenience of our Vibes!!!

    Great car! Fun to drive, motor could be a bit larger, but economy great. Surprisingly large cargo area. View of road really good. No problem in snow without AWD. Overall great car. No regrets buying this model!

    I got my Vibe a couple of months ago because of my my job requires me to drive alot. Great gas milage but the Vibe has one of the worst blind spots I have ever seen. If I had of known about this from the beginning I would not have bought it.

    Have owned for over a year.I adore everything about it.I am a mother of two,who dislikes the idea of a minivan.This vehicle is just right in pricing, style, safety, & fuel economy.
