  Great car - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By bigwicker - July 6 - 10:00 am

  My second Aztek. Handles beautifully. Comfortably but a fairly firm ride considering its build. 26 mpg hwy @ 80mph w. AC. Great room. Cant understand why Edmunds lists it as mid- size. No matter how fully loaded, I always seem to be able to see out the reah hatch. Great handling. I always know exactly where the front bumper is. A joy to park and maneauver in tight spots. Quick enough. Dependable so far (80k miles) Criticism: Spoiler on rear hatch encumbers rear view vision. Rear hatch doesnt want to release in cold weather. Lousy trade- in value...completely unjustified. Great car.

  NotSoUglyDuckling - 2004 Pontiac Aztek
  By Maru - July 6 - 10:00 am

  This car is fun to drive and cool to look at. The only drawback is the engine. It should definitely be a 3.6 vs. 3.4!! It handles well and looks like a cross between a hatchback and an SUV, which is why I like it. I have all of the options, including leather interior, and I enjoy the comfort.

  Not worth your money - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
  By Shannon1283 - July 3 - 1:36 pm

  I first bought my AWD Sports Aztek because of 2 friends owning one. I took a ride in it and fell in love. 2 days later, I went and bought one. As ugly as it is, my Aztek is super sporty with a lot of features most dont have. However, I have had nothing but problems with it (My 2 friends sold theirs a year later and later found out it was documented a "lemon"). I have 72,000 miles on it right now. I have replaced both front rotors twice, brakes twice, windshield always leaks,gas mileage is horrible.I fill up every 4 to 5 days (I only drive about 30 miles every day). Rear latch always sticks, tires wear out easily, now the car is shaking and a bad grinding noise which is affecting driving

  I love my Aztek - 2003 Pontiac Aztek
  By Texas Lady - June 27 - 2:00 am

  Height is perfect. Easy to get into and out of, yet tall enough to give good visibility. Turns on a dime. I like the heads up display.

  aztek rules - 2003 Pontiac Aztek
  By aztek - June 27 - 2:00 am

  I am fascinated with my aztek. It really is the best on the road. Really, people are simply evil to say its ugly. We must take into consideration human nature: what you cant have/dont own/are to poor to own/ are to stupid to be original, then its ugly. ha, ha, ha! The truth remains: AZTEK IS BEAUTIFUL, that why I bought it. Good thing its also fully loaded, leather, sunroof etc.

  On the Road with Aztec - 2003 Pontiac Aztek
  By Coach L - June 11 - 10:00 am

  Last month, I drove the Aztec from New Orleans to St. Louis with no long stops, and I got out of the vehicle without any stiffness. No comfort concerns. At 24-28 mpg on the highway, no problems there either. Performance? Responsive and smooth, but I wish it sat just a little higher for speed bumps and uneven driveways. Climate control and stereo sound are excellent, and its fun to see people staring at the vehicle at stop lights. The unusual styling is an attention-getter, and my high school students love it. My only complaint about the interior is that for some reason, some of the seating areas seem to be wearing rather quickly.

  keep it for life - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By derek16 - June 1 - 5:50 am

  I have had this car for about a year now and i love it! When i first got it the temp. gauge went out so i returned it to the car dealer ship. They tried to fix it but the just broke it even worse and the broke the gas gauge. But i know when im gonaa run out. It is in the shop because the air conditoner compresser fell off but what can u expect. Every car will need work done to it eventualy. I have treat this car like crap and it has only broke down onec. Everyone says that it is good on the snow but i have ran into many curbs and bent the rims. All in all this is the best car that i have had and i plan to switch to the torrent when this one goes out. Very roomy. Hope this was helpful.

  we love it - 2002 Pontiac Aztek
  By nick dalmation - May 22 - 10:00 am

  We love this car. My son is a 13 year old and we both think the car is geat. It had lots of interior room, wonderful when both of you are almost 6 feet tall.The back seat is even comfortable for my son. He has lots of leg room in the back seat. The CD player and cooler are inovative additions to a vehicle.

  Pontiac Aztek Wind Noise - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By aztec - May 22 - 10:00 am

  At highway speed (70 mph) the wind noise is excessive, so much that you can not talk on the cell phone or carry on a normal conversation. The manufacture calls this a wind turbulence and admits that it is there,however they will not fix or replace this defective vehicle.
