Front crash against a solid corner of a building, aprox speed crash 45 MPH. Gm did not want to repair or replaced, instead faced a trial where they committed a fraud and other felonious, all of them proven, still after nearly 9 years still facing civil and criminal charges. Gm dealer with false statement still now a days keeps the vehicle, same that still can be analyzed now a days because it has not been repaired. Lots of damage caused by gm, dealers, lawyers and expert witnesses. Regret very much such a poor behavior of gm, I ma ready to supply as much information as needed, photos, reports, and courts documents that proves their felonious. A gm expert witness submitted to the court a false report, and also bought the official expert witness of the court, these felonies have already been proved bythe court, that is why now they are facing a civil and criminal charges, for gm if not quality good is the fraud!!!!!

2001 pontiac aztek. During hot days (>85 degrees) truck will continue to accelerate slowly when foot is removed from accelerator at speeds under 42-46 MPH. If at speeds above 50 MPH, truck will decelerate until it reaches about 42-46mph. Rpm is between 1500 RPM and 2100 RPM when this occurs. Braking is long and difficult when this occurs. Vehicle 'groans' when at complete stop. Putting the truck into park has an RPM of 2000-2300 RPM and a very high idle. No mil or non- mill illuminates when this occurs. Turning the key off will return the car to a normal (500-800 RPM) idle, and each successive key off will lower the idle a bit more if the idle was still a bit high. Has happened at least ten times. Iac was cleaned and did not solve the problem. Iac was replaced and that did not solve the problem.
