Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Versatile interior, available all-wheel drive.

Cons

Cheap interior materials, poor visibility, awkward styling.

What’s new

An MP3 player is newly available, as are new five-spoke aluminum wheels. A rally appearance package that includes chrome exhaust tips, a body-colored front grille and a lowered suspension is now available, but can only be had with black, orange or gray exterior paint.

Edmunds says

Although functional as a minivan/sport-utility crossover, the Aztek's ungainly handling and weak engine make it hard to recommend over more refined wagons and sport-utes.

88K-5+ Years: Going Great.

IndyLee, 02/27/2010

2004 Pontiac Aztek Fwd 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 4A)

First was my wife's car. Became mine last year. Great road car. Wish we could get 27-29 mpg, best ever 26.5 on highway. Got rid of full-size pick-up and took over the Aztek ... not a bad deal. Few negatives, lots of good stuff. Stereo rocks. Pull out tray in rear is wonderful. If they still made them, we'd buy another.

Great vehicle. 168k and still going strong. Best feature is the versatility of the the interior. Easy to remove seats.

My favorite car of all time

2004 Pontiac Aztek Fwd 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 4A)

My biggest disappointment is that I'll never be able to get another one. I have loved the reliability, value and function of this car. Rides fantastic! Great pickup. Function, function, function on the interior. Like everyone else, I would say the rear spoiler causes a major blind spot but you do get used to it. I have almost 90K on this and still no problems. I am going to drive it …

I Love My Aztek

2004 Pontiac Aztek Fwd 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 4A)

I've had my Aztek now for 10 months. I absolutely love it. I went from driving a 1992 Toyota Corolla to the Aztek. Huge change! Indeed a great one though. My husband and son have no problems with not enough room like I did with the previous car. I've not had to replace anything on it but the brakes and tires. It had 92000 miles on it when I bought it. Great gas mileage for an SUV. …
