  • Mechanical Difficulties - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
    By -

    I have driven the Pontiac Aztec for almost 3 yrs and I have had difficulty with the condensor for the air conditioner 2 summers straight. The condensor was leaking and cracked both times and had to be brought to dealership for repair of the same problem. The information lights continously come on and display inaccurate information. The air-bag light comes on and stays on. Outside of mechanical problems, it is a fun car to drive but I would never purchase another one of its kind and I would encourage not purchasing a car before it has been on the road for at least 2 years.

    Fun car to drive. Responsive to the wheel. Great small features such as automatic sound level change with highway speeed. Plenty of cargo room and easy to set-up. Unique design that everyone is now coping. When i first drove, we called it the butt-ugly car that was beautiful

  • Love my AZTEK - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
    By -

    I loved the look of the Aztek when they first came out. They do not look like every vehicle out there on the roads. It was an easy transistion from the "mom" mini-van to the Aztek. Because of my vehicle, 3 others have bought Azteks. :-)

  • Interesting & Fun - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
    By -

    When I first saw the uniqueness of this car, I fell in love. I did much research in the net and prowled dealerships before making the final decision. I have loved it from the first test drive to the present. With its slide out tray in the rear, makes loading and unloading a breeze. Love the tailgate seat, the air shocks are a God send and the compressor is very useful when in remote places. When driving on long trips, quite pleased with the mileage on the highway. Once I even got 40 Can. miles per gallon, not estimated but calculated. Did have to get the computer replaced but felt that it was something I did. No other major repairs so far to date. Loved its stability on the highway.

  • Not too sure. - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
    By -

    Bought this car from my in laws. What a bad choice. It was low on miles when I bought it from them. Fuel censor went, and they never replaced it. It was just 32 days after they purchased it. They had done some minor repairs on it. They barely drove it. So when I bought it 9 yrs old with 114k on it. I though I was laughing. I have now put it up to 154k in about 1 1/2 yrs. And the transmission just pooched on me a few days ago. The engine light comes on often, the breaks go, the gasket needs changing. No heat in the winter or air conditioner in the summer. And its been fixed repeatably. I am glad to hand over this hunk of junk.

  • So ugly its cute - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
    By -

    I was out looking to buy my 3rd Ford Exploer. Then I ended up at the Pointiac dealer looking at an Aztek, at 1st I thought it was ugly then as I looked at it, it got cuter I looking inside of it I was very impressed. I drove it and was sold I went back to my Ford dealer and looked at what I got for the same money. The Exploer was so plain,the new silver pastic inside the sport is cheap looking and feeling So back to Pointic I went. Bottom line My AWD Aztec is great. Theres more space than the exploer more power,BTW most the new SUV types coming out theyre as far out styled if not more than the Aztec. ie: frist drives 05 cars in MT,C&D, auto week etc.

  • Best in class! - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
    By -

    Simply put, I compared the Aztek to just about everything. It beat out all of its competition in so many important areas it was ridiculous! Well it didnt win in every part, but if it didnt win, it was an equal. Then with the incentives they are offering, it was the best deal! So really it was a no brainer! Anyway I have a 2002, Black with lots of options, I love the new style and I highgly recommend it!

    Great vehicle! Fun to drive. Been all over with it. Fantastic handling etc. I average 22mpg. Great to haul with too. I have the FWD GT model. Ask me what my next vehicle will be? Another Aztek!!!! Great comfort with seats, everything within easy reach.

  • Great Aztek - 2001 Pontiac Aztek

    Great Chassis! Styling is much improved over 2001. Im glad GM finally figured out that cladding isnt always the way to go.
