My rear brakes had to be changed the first time at 13,590 miles and I was told it was not covered under my warranty my brakes then had to be replaced on the rear again at 16,473 and since then my brakes have been pads and rotors and brakes have been like changing oil every three thousand miles . I have also had to have my body control module replaced my security control module and my radio ,fuel sensor and windshield wiper sensor and brakes again I currently have a compressor that needs replacement and a air conditioner and heater that are no longer working I have called the bbb auto line and filed two complaints with them and numerous complaints to my dealer and gm I have been offered free oil changes and tire rotations and extended warranty on a car that is an accident waiting to happen .my hatch does not work correctly I have the ticking noise in my engine and my dash board lights are on or off depending on the moment . I am amazed at how many of these vehicles and there dealers say they will repair and fix the problem then the moment it is out of the shop it is there again . I think it will take a tragic accident for pontiac or gm to realize that these vehicles are very dangerous to the family's who own them I have to small children and this is my transportation I would hope it would not have to take a horrible accident before people listen to what we have to say . I am very concerned for the safety of my self and my children and anyone who owns one of these .

Numerous problems concerning 2002 pontiac aztek. Brakes, wheel bearings, flywheel and tires.
Front brakes have been replace 4 times in 41,000 miles back brakes have less less than normal wear. Vehicle brakes poorly on wet and icy roads due to front brakes taking most of the braking.
My 2002 aztek has only 45,000 miles, mostly highway. The rear brakes are making a grinding noise right before coming to a complete stop. I was told by plaza tire that the brakes are not bad, that pontiac has a problem with its braking system and is aware of it the gentleman to whom I spoke stated that the only way he knew to fix the problem was to replace the rotors, calipers and pads, and that he could not guarantee the problem wouldn't reoccur. He stated I should take it to my pontiac dealer and that they should fix the problem, but he did not know if they would since it is no longer under warranty. If pontiac is aware of this problem, they should fix it.
Abs activation on dry roads at low speeds 20mph brake pedal going to the floor at various times . All four rotors were resurfaced at 7721 mile we were told warped pitted and rusted this did not correct the intermitnet activatio of the ABS system.
