Driving at a low speed in a parking lot by myself, my vehicle shut off on me. The battery light flashed and I lost the steering and brakes. I had to slam on the emergency brake to avoid hitting a parked vehicle. This incident was reported to gm and was taken to wayne woodrums pontiac dealership in macomb, il. They found nothing wrong with it, there were no codes. I have had numerous problems with this vehicle including braking issues that can not be fixed, pcv valve failure, and currently it is struggling while driving and loud rattling, I am calling woodrums back tommorrow morning. I am unsure of the date this happened, all of my paperwork is in another location. I do know it was in november of 2004.

While pulling into a parking area the vehicle stalled without warning. As a result the steering column and brakes locked up. The dealer claimed that a power steering pump was installed on the vehicle. The power steering column is still whining and the brakes are still grinding and the starter is still hesitating. *nm the front and back bumpers separated from the vehicle, the steering wheel had a lot of play, the windshield contained numerous chips, the windows squealed when opening and closing, there was a constant whining sound coming from the steering wheel, the steering wheel and the brakes would lock up when in motion, and the vehicle was never properly aligned. When the vehicle was taken in for the whining, brakes and the starter, the consumer was told that nothing was wrong with the vehicle. The consumer was later told that the power steering pump had an air bubble. The engine was also slow to start and would click at times. *sc

While driving on the highway on vacation my aztec just shut off. I had it towed they reset the computer and sent it out the door. Eight hours later it did it again. I had it towed back and they found a bad ignition relay!! This thing is not even four months old.
