 Dash losing different component operation. started with fuel gauge and temperature gauge then affected radio lights and lcd display. now vehicle speedometer has become erratic and untrustworthy. radio lights and display an inconvenience but the combination of fuel and now the speedometer not reading properly is causing a concern for safety. at the rate this is going the whole dash will be malfunctioning soon. according to what i see the parts alone can be $300 - $500 plus the repair charges. internet has countless entries about the electrical problems on the pontiac azteks but no service bulletins on the nhtsa web site and no mentioning of any recalls by pontiac. why isn't the nhtsa lookiing into this with so many problems being shared on the internet? why are the owners being required to pay for these repairs since it's such a widespread aztek issue?

 1)when i removed gas cap to fill tank with gas, i heard a hissing sound coming out of the gas tank. when trying to fill tank with gas, hose kept clicking off and would not allow me to put gas in the tank. i went to a different gas station and the same thing happened. i have since been unable to use the car as i can not fill the tank. 2)this second problem has been ongoing since i purchased this car. the service engine soon light keeps coming on a regular basis. i have had this checked out each time and the mechanics always have a hard time identifying the problem. this has been extremely costly. further more, the vehicle can't pass inspection with that light on. 3) this third problem has also been ongoing. i have to replace my brakes at least twice a year. they wear down quickly and make an awful grinding noise. the mechanics cannot understand the reason for this either. except to tell me this car is defective. 4)in the last year or so, when i make a turn in either direction, there is a grinding noise. my transmission fluid levels are always good when this happens. 5) the hatch does not open when the automatic opening button is used, must always have someone in the back to open it as i simultaneously push the button. 6)when i press the brakes to stop, it feels like the brakes disengage or the anti-lock brakes kick in and this happens when road is dry this car has been a piece of junk since the day i bought it and has caused multiple financial and emotional problems with all it's defects. i will never buy a pontiac or gm car again!!!!!!!!!!! *tr
