GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Lets see who has the most miles/kilometers on their odometer, and what kind of repairs you have needed. I'm curious to see the kind of mileage my fellow vibers have been racking up. My Vibe has about 23,000 miles on her now. Besides a faulty headrest on delivery, and the thin paint, all is well and no repairs as of yet. Just routine maintenace so far.

Not me...I have 8,000 miles, and the car is a year old.

I've had mine for 10 months and I just hit 16,023 when I got to work this morning

I have 6700 kilometers on mine after 3 months.......not too sure what that is in miles...

I suspect that the wife should have 7000 miles within the first 3 months.

i have about 31,000 miles on my baby, still going strong, nothing mechanical.

31,000 eh?I should have been there by now if I still had the first one.Im at 15,000 again

16,000 since March 1st 2003. Not a single problem at all (except a few too many paint chips on the hood). It has never been back to the dealer since I bought it, except to pick up the license plates.

My Vibe turns a year old on Halloween and I'm at 40,000 miles. I'm from the Bay Area in Cali... I took too many road trips to Vegas, and too many trips to Tahoe...

I've had my Vibe for 5 months now, just around 10000 KM.so, that's 2000km/month.

I may win for the least. My Vibe will be one year old in November, and I still haven't broken 3000 miles yet.KSNeptune

Okay, yep, you got me beat...3,000 miles...geesh. You aren't my friend Josh are you? LOL

I have 20,500 miles. I have had mine 7 months at the end of the week. It has not been back to see the dealer. The foglight is cracked, and only a few paint chips.

I just hit 20K miles yesterday on my way home from work. Purchase date was 11/30/02

My vibe is 2 days old (to me) and has 39 miles on it!!! ~Sarah

My Vibe is 13 months old and I have roughly 16,000 miles ...So far so good.. no major problems

i've got 27 000 km on mine but still runs like new

just passed 10K after 7 mos

I got mine April 1st and just hit 10,000 miles this week

got mine in late june and rolled 8K on it

quote:i have about 31,000 miles on my baby, still going strong, nothing mechanical.So that puts me in Second so far.

A few miles away from 20,000 in 15 months - no major problems to report.

I have a shinny 2,300 KM on mine, and its a little over a month old.Only problem so far is me learning to drive a standard

My vibe has just shy of 8,000 miles after almost a year. This was after having a wonderful record breaking summer and mostly driving my 91 Chrysler Le baron convertible most of the summer here in the Seattle area. Convertibles rule over any sunroof!!

My one year anniversary with my Vibe is October 24th... She had about 8500 miles on her when I got her. Now she has 43,000. Besides a faulty map light and rear wiper--she has been wonderful!!!! I think I'll get about 300,000 miles out of it--that's what I got out of my first Cavalier and I didn't even take good care of it. I'll probably drive her until she dies (or until she's paid off--whichever comes first... )

Wow all these low numbers. Got mine last December, and rolled over 26K today! Wish that number was about 10K less... Anyways... Keep on truckin'

55,000 Miles...no problems...not even a brake change yet.-Savoy-

If you have 55k, what type of maintenance have you done? At what interval do you do oil changes, etc.Just want to know, I expect to still be paying on mine at 150k.

It is good to see that people are not having to replace brake pads/rotors etc. That is a common problem with the sunfire/grand am in the motor city because of all of the stop and go driving. My wife goes through brake pads like tissue paper. I changed the pads on her last vehicle every 25K.

"If you have 55k, what type of maintenance have you done? At what interval do you do oil changes, etc."The only maintenance I have done is oil change and tire rotation and I do both at every 7,000 miles. I use castrol syntec.-Savoy-

Three months, four days... 10,600 miles. Three round trips from Jersey to Atlanta, plus commutes from central Jersey to the US Open on Long Island. Only issues are paint chips, and that blasted clutch smell!

Mine's 16 months old and I have around 15,500 miles on mine!

4 months, 5 days12,514 miles

I have around 20,500 miles now. I purchased my Vibe back on May 8, 2002. No major issues, just fixed the gauge rings rattle, and hope the clutch lasts. It's been an awesome car, love it!Later,

Just wish the rest of the d@mn lasted as good.

Well, after 14 months of ownership I have 19,000 miles and no problems thus far other than a 30" crack in my windshield.

"Got a new king of mileage. You must have long comutes to work eh?"I will accept this crown and rule justly . Actually my office is just a little over a mile away. It is what I do when I get there that piles on the miles. I do a LOT of traveling within a 300 mile radius. As many miles as I have...I would say that 95% of them are Highway miles. So it was important for me to choose a vehicle that I won't mind spending a lot of time in. As a side note...XM/Sirius sat. radio is a must when doing that many miles regularly.-Savoy-

15 months, just turned over 40,000 km (about 25,000 miles). Have been following the scheduled maintenance (every 5000k according to GM Canada) and no mechanical problems as yet. Just some minor rattling issues and chipped paint. So far so good.... I've only ever owned Honda's and Toyota's before so my expectations on durability are pretty high. My first toyota (now owned by someone else) is still on the road with over 500,000 km (312,500 miles) on it.

8000 i got it in april.

I just passed 80,000 km today on the way home. That's 50,000 miles.

I'm sitting at 60,000 miles. I haven't been doing as much traveling as usual.-Savoy-

lol wow, I have 7500 and its a year old...but 6500 of those miles were put on between August, and now.

17, 000km in 4 months, and that is before the ski trips start this winter.

"Woo hoo, I'm catching up!"I cannot allow this to happen !-Savoy-

Quote, originally posted by Savoy »I cannot allow this to happen !-Savoy-Well, I do get the week of Christmas off, so I won't be doing quite so much driving that week. And, I'm getting married next year, so that'll be about 2 weeks of not driving to work every day.But, my fiance's cousin is getting married (in Chicago) next year, and we do have a habit of doing a marathon drive down there for these types of events... I'd say we'll be keeping pretty even for the next while
