| 2006 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | WHEN CONSUMER WAS ATTEMPTING TO BACK OUT OF PARKING SPACE, 2006 TORRENT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED IN REVERSE AT HIGH SPEED. *TS AS A RESULT THE VEHICLE CRASHED ONTO ANOTHER VEHICLE PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER'S BODY SHOP. WHEN THEY ATTEMPTED TO DO AN ALIGNMENT THEY NOTICED DAMAGE TO THE STEERING SYSTEM COMPONENTS (RIGHT FRONT STRUT, STEERING KNUCKLE, HUB, BEARING AND LOWER CONTROL ARM). THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO THE DEALER'S SERVICE SHOP TO BE INSPECTED. THE TECHNICIAN INSPECTED AND TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND FOUND NO CODES STORED IN THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER AND DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. *NM |
| 2006 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | THE HEATER AND THE DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING. I FOUND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DURING THE WINTER TIME BECAUSE THE DEFROST DOES NOT WORK. EVERYONE ONLINE SAYS THE REPAIR IS AROUND $1200.00 BECAUSE OF HOW HARD IT IS TO GET TO THE PART. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL! *TR |
