Recalls
6 recalls name the 2001 Pontiac Aztek. Newest first.
On certain vehicles, variations in the manufacturing process or exposure to high ambient temperatures may lead to fracture of the fuel tank inlet check valve (icv).
Risk and remedy
Risk
A fracture may allow fuel vapors to pass through and allow droplets of fuel to accumulate on the side of the fuel tank. fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the fuel tank. the recall will be mailed in two phases with the first phase beginning on december 4, 2007. the second phase will be mailed on december 13, 2007. owners may contact buick at 1-866-608-8080; chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438; or pontiac at 1-800-620-7668. the vehicle population includes buick rendezvous and pontiac aztek vehicle built in may 2003; chevrolet venture and pontiac montana vehicles built from june through august 2002; and all vehicles registered in nevada, arizona, virgin islands, puerto rico, and hawaii.
Certain delphi fuel pressure regulators, p/nos. Fp10020-11b1, fp10026-11b1, and fp10027-11b1, sold after january 9, 2007, as aftermarket equipment for various passenger vehicles listed above. the universal pressure regulators (upr) were produced without an o'ring and retainer.
Risk and remedy
Risk
Fuel may leak, possibly resulting in a fire.
Remedy
Delphi will notify owners and replace the upr free of charge. the recall began on april 23, 2007. owners can contact delphi at 877-411-8770.
Certain minivans, passenger and sport utility vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 225, "child restraint anchorage system." the owner's manual does not explain the meaning of the location symbols for the child restraint lower universal anchorage system.
Risk and remedy
Risk
This does not meet the requirements of the standard.
Remedy
Owners will be provided with a supplement for their owner's manual. this supplement describes and shows the location symbols for the child restraint anchors that are located in the vehicle and on the child restraint or booster cushion. owner notification began august 18, 2003. owners should contact buick at 1-866-608-8080, cadillac at 1-866-982-2339, chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, pontiac at 1-800-620-7668, or oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537.
On certain passenger, sport utility vehicles and MINI vans, some of these vehicles have a passenger air bag that was manufactured without a check valve pin. an air bag without the check valve pin could produce increased pressure at the onset of the air bag deployment and reduced pressure afterward.
Risk and remedy
Risk
This could increase the severity of injury to a person who was not properly restrained and who was close to the passenger air bag at the time of deployment. it could also reduce the ab8ility of the air bag to protect a restrained front seat passenger.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the passenger air bag. owner notification began december 16, 2002. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, pontiac at 1-800-762-2737, oldsmobile at 1-800-442-6537, or saturn at 1-800-553-6000, prompt #3.
Vehicle description: certain MINI vans built with second row 50/50 split bench seats or captain's chairs, fail to comply with the requirements of fmvss no. 225, "child restraint anchorage systems." the seat latch anchor wire diameter IS greater than 6.1 mm.
Risk and remedy
Risk
If the connector for a latch-type child restraint IS not attached correctly to the anchorage points, the restraint will not properly protect a child in the event of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the latch anchor wires and repair those with an improper diameter. owner notification began april 10, 2002. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, oldsmobile at 1-800-442-6537, or pontiac at 1-800-762-2737.
Vehicle description: passenger, sport utility vehicles and minivans. the passenger air bag inflator modules were built without the correct amount of generant, which produces the gas that fills the air bag. some were built with a double load of generant and some were built without generant.
Risk and remedy
Risk
In the event of a crash that would trigger a passenger air bag deployment, a double load of generant can cause the inflator module to explode. if the air bag module explodes, metal and plastic debris could cause severe injury to vehicle occupant. a module with no generant would not inflate the air bag, and the occupants could receive more severe injuries.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the passenger air bag module. telephone calls were made to owners on january 29, 2001. follow up owner mailing began on april 17, 2001. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, pontiac at 1-800-762-2737, or saturn at 1-800-553-6000.

Gm has issued a safety bulletin in regards to a broken fuel tank that could cause explosions, or fire. I have tried to get them to perform the repair but they are refusing. The problem IS for all years of the pontiac aztek and buick rendezvous. I have a leak from this location, the fuel inlet, and am nearly afraid to drive the vehicle, but at a cost of over 2000 dollars, gm IS also inflating the cost because they know the repair needs to be done.

After arriving home from work, I followed my normal routine: parking in my driveway, cutting off the engine and removing the key before exiting the vehicle; however, I could not remove the key from the ignition switch. No matter what I attempted it would not budge. My adult son also tried to remove the key from the ignition switch with no success. The key was stuck in the 2ND position-- meaning that the vehicle was still "on" just not running. I left it as it was with my key stuck in the ignition. The next morning, of course, my battery was dead because the ignition switch was still in the "on" position. the next day I found a temporary "workaround" on youtube. However, the ignition IS still not fixed and I am still using the temporary workaround. I have contacted a local gm dealer and gm offices only to be told that the recall does not cover my vehicle. I knew that before I called them; which wasn't the reason I contacted them. I asked why this particular ignition problem was not issued a recall and I was told by a gm representative that it had to be issued from your organization. I think this should be added to the ignition switch recall that IS currently being investigated. Gm did an overall poor job with the ignition switches on the vehicles that were sold to the public and they need to take accountability for it. Thank you. *tr

As I have seen other owners of this specific car state on your site, my fuel tank has developed a crack, and I was told by gm that I am out of luck because it IS "out of recall since 2011," even though I was never notified about a possible problem with my fuel tank! so now I am driving around in, essentially, a molotov cocktail, having to spend $800 to replace a gas tank that was supposed to be replaced by gm in 2007, at no cost, because gm failed to notify me. this IS vile. to think that gm doesn't care if owners of their cars are driving around in potential firebombs, that they knew about, IS sickening. I purchased this car new, and certainly deserved to be notified about problems that are potentially life-threatening, and offers to replace defective parts, that were supposed to be sent to me, as per the nhtsa campaign ID #07v349000. *tr

I contacted pontiac regarding a recall on my aztec which includes the fuel tank, this IS a safety issue since it can catch fire with just a spark from electrical on my car, well they said that I was out of the recall since 2011 I was not even aware there was a recall until I started investigating my problem online, I did not receive any notice regarding this safety issue I am not the original owner I bought it used but I registered it and never received any notice, my children and grandchildren ride in this car, and all they could tell me at pontiac was we are sorry but you are out of the recall time, and we can schedule you an appointment but we will not pay, so they do not care if someone could possibly die in a vehicle that was a factory default , which IS their fault not mine. They are refusing to fix this problem. *tr

Brakes failed - the pedal went all the way to the floor while entering US10 in bay county, mi. Why - because the brake line failed. To me, this IS a vehicle safety issue and a design problem. The problem was fixed at graff chevrolet, 3636 e wilder rd, bay city, mi. The fix included replacing a section of brake line that was wrapped in heat reflecting tape. The way I see it, the tape trapped water between the tape and the steel tube causing the rusted tube to fail. Poor engineering design. How many more cars are there out there, on this car platform, that will experience this failure? I own a 1958 chevy conv, that has existed in michigan since 1958. It has not had this problem. I'm not looking for money. I want to protect all the people owning these vehicles from be killed or whatever other life altering things that could happen. I was very very lucky when my brakes failed. *tr

2001 pontiac aztec. Consumer states that he has some electrical safety issues with his vehicle. He has replaced the headlamp switch assembly, instrument control assembly, hva temperature control assembly, fuel pump module assembly and turn signal switch assembly. *kb the lights that illuminated the assemblies burned out and the consumer was unable to see the instrument panel at night. due to the sending unit malfunctioning, the fuel gauge would not register the amount of fuel remaining in the tank. Because the sending unit was a part of the fuel pump assembly, the entire unit required replacement. also, while driving at night with the headlights on, when the consumer activated the turn signal, the high beam lights would come on. Upon turning the signal off, the high beams would also turn off. *Jb

Purchased the pontiac 2001 aztek from a dealer used. the first week the check engine light came on. Second week the service vehicle light came on and the thermometer gauge was stuck in cold, took the car to checkers autoparts to diagnose. Was a bad thermostat. another week later the engine started overheating. Stopped checked coolant. Was gone out of the reservoir, which I just had filled at jiffy lube that morning. stopped by them again, they checked the liquids, found coolant mixed in with the oil. Advised not to continue driving the vehicle since it can mess up the engine. Called dealer and had them tow it. they have been working on it for the past 4 days. Stated that it was the intake manifold gasket. wondering if this vehicle IS safe after reading several complaints regarding it. and also if pontiac would fix it. *tr
