I haven't looked myself for where it is, but I have heard it may be sorta behind either the drivers side or passanger side headlight assembly.

2003 Aztek won't start by rme300

I replaced the battery on my Aztek last weekend. Today I try and start it and all the dash lights, radio, and overhead lights flash on and off and the car won't turn over when I try and start it. Checking the voltage on the battery shows 12.2 volts. It's been doing this on and off for a few weeks, but I always was able to jump it. Now even jumping won't work. Any ideas as to what the problem might be? Thanks in advance

Most likely thing is bad cable connection to battery or cable itself is bad. Also check cable connecttion to underhood fuse box.

How do you change a thermostat in a Pontiac Aztec?

Where is everyone from? by bruckmann

I was looking on some websites and found a recall website for Aztecs, there were many recalls.... I called the number and I was referred to a different number because I live in Canada and that was a US number I called. When I called the Canada number barely any of the recalls that were diplayed on the page were in Canada. I asked the person on the phone why that was and she said it was because of where the Aztecs were manufactured. So my questions are:
Do this mean that more people in the US are having problems with their Aztecs or is Canada just falling behind on owning up to these problems? Or is it actually possible that problems are more common with Aztecs that were manufactured in the US?
I have had my share, expically brake wise. Just curious.

I think it's just a demographics thing. There are 10 times more Americans than Canadians and I think proportionally more Azteks are sold south of the border so there will be far fewer "complaints" on your side of the border on that basis alone. I also think that Americans may be a little less patient when trying to resolve issues and would ratchet things up more quickly.

My brakes squeal, however I have had the roators machined, replaces, and new brake pads and they STILL squeal...I am told that this is normal occurance. Just 2 weeks ago though I had to have a sensor replaced because my ABS kept disabling...the wire was clearly coroded though...so it was time for a new one.
I now am having a problem where when I go to drive my car and it has been sitting for awhile I brake and the car stops and then go's a bit (even though my foot is on the brake) and then stops....scary. Its being looked at on Friday.(I take mine to a Mazda dealership they have been amazing) Does anyone find that their car engine is quite noisy? Or that their Aztec is quite loud when speeding up and the gears are changing?

Hi I am a 2001 Aztek owner just came back from getting my new BCM programed everything is great on the electrical end now! I saved $400 replacing the BCM my self and bought the BCM from Brightauto.com (ACDELCO Part) for $172 vs. $280 anyway i am still having trouble with the awd and abs. Know.... it sounds kinda like a plane taking off while driving. Has anyone had this same problem and if so how to fix it?
