Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a new 2005 pontiac aztek on july 1, 2005. seven days later, with 611 miles on the vehicle, it completely shut down while i was on the road. i was unable to restart the vehicle, turn on my hazard lights, or even remove the key from the ignition. when the tow truck arrived, the driver jiggled the wires leading to the battery. although he said they didn't feel loose, the vehicle did start after that. i drove it to the dealership i bought the vehicle from, they tested it, and told me they could find no problems nor duplicate the problem. the problem occurred while i was stopped at a light. however, about five minutes prior, i was moving down the road when the anti-lock brake light suddenly came on and the radio station changed (without help from me). after about a second, the light went off and the radio returned to my original station. five minutes later, stopped at a light, is when the vehicle shut down as described above.
