Overall Score
I have driven this car coast to coast in Canada and it hasn't let me down yet. I have moved both daughters and all their stuff to Fredericton from Cambridge and Saulte Ste Marie from Cambridge as well. Even had things tied to the roof rack and it still drove well in strong wind. Nice to drive on the highway.

Manufacturer Recall Number:
06089
Units Affected:
49,116
Notification Type:
Safety TC
On certain Aztek (AWD), Montana (AWD), Relay (AWD), RendezVous (AWD), RendezVous (FWD), Silhouette (AWD), Terraza (AWD), Terraza (FWD), Uplander (AWD) and Venture (AWD) vehicles equipped with independent rear suspension, when operated in extreme cold temperature and on rough roads, water and salt can intrude past the ball joint seal. The combination of theses conditions may then lead to premature wear of the ball joint. If the ball joint wear progresses to the point of separation from the lower control arm, a loss of vehicle control may occur. Correction: Dealers will replace both ball joints with new ball joints which have a revised boot and ball stud to improve the seal to the ball stud shaft.
