  Nothing But trouble - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By Dino501 - January 25 - 2:00 am

  I Love the look of the Aztek. Inside is very comfortable...UNTIL I had to take it in for the recall on the battery discharge problem which I wasnt haveing. The computer blew and I had to wait 2 weeks to get a new one. That was 3 computer systems ago and still have tons of trouble with electrical system and I have replaced all the lights and fuses over and over.Not to mention all the sensors going haywire and not working. Also the AC goes out at least one or two times a summer. Dealership was as nice as they could be but no help. But Pontiac was NO HELP and did nothing about it. Ruined me on Pontiacs and this was my 3rd and last of their products.

  2001 Aztek things I learned - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By mike - November 7 - 11:53 am

  I bought this car in 2008, with only 63K miles on it for 5K. Needed to put on new AC condenser, which the dealership wanted $1,100. I bought a reconditioned one on ebay for $200, and then a shop installed for $75 Also I problems with steering PULLING hard left, and then hard right, until I noticed that there were two different brand of tires on front. Once I bought two new tires that matched, it drives like a dream. I still get lights that flash on the dash, I keep taking it in, and , two weeks later they come on again.

  never again - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By marycat - October 21 - 10:00 am

  I loved my Aztek for the 1st year. Then the problems began. I had it towed 3 times. The engine would continually stall. When it was towed to the garage it would run and they could find nothing wrong. I was not the only one this happened to. You can hear the wind through the passenger window which I have also fixed 3 times and it still does it. My SES is alway on and there is nothing wrong. I have given up on paying for that to be checked My heater went out the 2nd year (l live in WI and need a heater) This year air conditioner went out. Now I am stuck and cant afford a new car.

  Must Purchase! - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By BusinessOwner - July 28 - 7:36 am

  This vehicle is the best vehicle I have ever owned! I have nearly 170k miles on it and have never done a single thing to it, besides oil changes and tires. When I hear about peoples vehicles breaking down it shocks me because everything works on this Aztek and it is truly flawless! I have heard many wonderful things about them before purchasing but owning and drive makes me a believer! My next vehicle will be a low mileage Aztek (if I can find one)... And the styling is still sharp for its age! I love my Aztek TCH

  Buyer Beware: Read before Purchasing - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By alchemy3 - June 9 - 3:13 am

  Do not buy a 2001 Aztek. The 2002 are at least $4,000 cheaper! This is not something the dealers will tell you. I bought a 2001 just before the 2002 came out, the dealer told me "no significant difference in price." So far GM and Pontiac have said, Tough, not our problem its yours. So basically they have no customer loyalty.

  Thees es no toaster humper! - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By Steevie Weevie - May 2 - 10:00 am

  Let others rave about the super comfortable leather seats, heads-up display, well-laid-out instruments and switches, and ro-o-o-om. Living in Tucson, I appreciate the dark factory window tinting and ample air conditioner. I keep a scrapbook full of Aztek-bashing articles for passengers’ amusement. It’s really hilarious for four big adults to be cruising smoothly and comfortably along listening to great sounds spilling out of the 10 speakers while reading some writer’s garbage prose about a CRX on steroids and the unholy spawn resulting when an SUV humped a toaster.

  Problems That Cost Money - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By pfcgtmw - November 14 - 10:00 am

  First, anyone who complains about the look of the vehicle was stupid for purchasing in the first place. 33,000 miles intake gasket leaked and was replaced. 35,000 air conditioner went out. Found a leak in condensor & put in new. 47,000 antifreeze leaking which has been estimated at $1300. drivers side door sticks. only had vehicle for a little over a year so I am not impressed. GM will not do anything about the problems.

  Whats that? - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By jb03 - November 14 - 10:00 am

  This is our second Aztek, and yes, we still have the first one. I love the styling, I love the interior. I JUST LOVE MY PONTIAC! Everyone asks.. "whats that." And I have to go into detail about what a cross-over SUV is, and what it isnt. You can not mistake this for any vehicle on the road (albeit its sister, the Rendezvous from Buick.) For anyone looking for room, fun, good gas mileage, and comfort, the Aztek is the edgy, hip way to go! Not to mention you can take it camping with the optional Camping Package.

  bryans aztek - 2001 Pontiac Aztek
  By xedf003 - October 1 - 2:00 am

  i thank the aztek is a great srv for the active lifestyle that alot of people have today, but the press have such a square minded outlook on cars and trucks that if it looks diffrent than any other car or truck they are to soon to knock it. A gm is so worried about the prsss opion that they have not done alot of promotions on the srv!!!!. Saying all of that, for the features and price this is the best veahicle in its range...
