Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This pontiac aztek has electrical problems that cause the entire vehicle to shut down while driving. when it occurs, everything stops working including the steering, therefore making it impossible to steer off the road safely. we have been in 3 near accidents since the vehicle electronic system always seemed to shut down while we were driving on busy highways. the result of the electrical system failure has been 3 burned out fuel pumps (each costing $700.00 to replace), an electrical harness needing replacement and continued electronic failures. all the repairs have been done at my expense. pontiac refuses to provide any assistance or even assist with finding a remedy to the problem. *nm
