2005 Pontiac Vibe consumer reviews

j'en ai une depuis 2016 et c'est un vibe 2005 automatic je fait de la grand route je l'ai acheter a 120.000 km et j'approche le 600.000 km changement d,huile fait au 6000 km point vue mécanique j ai changer les brake stateur table avant et béring de roue alternateur pour ce qui est du moteur et transmission j'ai rien mit dessus toujours original et prend 1/4 de pinte d'huile au 6000 km pour son millage cé bon et je l'ai brasser aussi tres tres résistant !

My mother bought a 2005 Vibe when it was brand new. She is still driving that car every day. It has just under 300,000 miles on it, barely. It still runs great.

(GT) Good news is great value for the money. Basically a Corolla wagon with modded engine at a discount because the brandname has been disappeared. Bad news is that the GM emission parts are hard to find and expensive. Either non-compatible parts too. And the one-size-fits-all emission controls do NOT give the same power band as the 2003.

This is a Toyota Matrix in a GM body. Came from a rare joint partnership. Family car for for almost 15-years. Almost 200k miles in Minnesota winters and it's never had needs beyond typical maintenance - tires, brakes, etc. Great car. Would recommend to anyone!

The only maintenance I have done is at 125,000 you change the serpertine belt and spark plugs. Did my self for $39. Parts from Auto Zone. I change the oil every 10,000 miles with synthetic oil. I see 2005 Vibes with over 300,000 miles with no problems. Take care of this car and it will last a long time. At 15 years my white car still looks like new. No dents. Put seat covers on seats when car was brand new. I highly recommend this dependable car.

A year later (nearly), the odometer sits at about 313,000 kms. I've had a no-start issue in that year, which was caused by a grounded wire that wasn't supposed to be. It was a bit of a tough find for the tech to pin-point but easy enough to fix. The Vibe has the exact same power plant as a corolla. So, essentially it's a Toyota, rebadged. (you'll notice the Toyota style steering wheel.) The 1.8l is a far cry from any 5L, let's say, but for what it is it does just fine! Wish I had the AWD and manual trans, but i'll settle. It'll definitely take a thrashing. Just keep your oil level topped, preventative maintenance up to parr and you should be able to get beyond 350 kms with the Toyota 1.8L. Canadian winters demand studded winter tires, and with such, you'll have trouble getting stuck!

It met all of my needs and expectations I'm in love with this car! So far this old girl is the most reliable vehicle I've ever bought.

I had a 2004 Vibe almost 10 years and only ever had to perform minimal maintenance on it. After a wreck last year, I decided to replace it with another Vibe, as the first one had proven so reliable. I now have a Vibe with the half the miles of my previous car and it's been great so far. Good for city driving or cross-country treks. Versatile functionality also makes it great for moving.

This car is very well put together. I have put about 200,000 miles on this car in the last 5 years and have almost no issues with anything on the car. As it sits now over 300,000 miles i wouldn't hesitate to jump in it and drive it across country.

I loved it. Met all my needs. Very reliable. Wish they still made them, I would definitely buy another. Mine has over 130,000 miles and no major repairs. Just normal maintenance
