| 2006 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I STARTED MY TORRENT JUST LIKE ANY MORNING, THE HEATER RAN FOR MAYBE 10 MINUTES THEN JUST STOPPED. IT WILL NOT BLOW OUT ANY KIND OF AIR (HOT OR COLD). BEING WINTER, COLD AND FROSTY, THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE. WITH NO DEFROSTER IT IS VERY HARD TO SEE, AND ITS VERY COLD. IT COSTS AROUND 1200 DOLLARS TO GET IT FIXED. EVEN IF IT IS FIXED I AS TOLD THE WAY THAT THEY MADE THE TORRENT THAT IT WILL JUST BREAK AGAIN. I DO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF CASH JUST LAYING AROUND. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED BUT GM IS TO CHEAP. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING. I DRIVE ALONG WAYS AND ITS DANGEROUS NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE. *TR |
| 2007 | ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL | I PURCHASED MY 2007 TORRENT NEW, MY SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL OFF HAS BEEN COMING ON SINCE I BOUGHT IT. THE PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING WERE NOT AFFECTED, IT RAN WITH NO PROBLEMS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO INQUIRE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD IT WILL RESET ITSELF AND IT DID, NO PROBLEM. BEGINNING OF DECEMBER 2013, I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC MOVING ABOUT 50MPH, MY TORRENT HAD NO PROBLEM MERGING BEFORE, AS I BEGAN TO ENTER THE TRAFFIC THERE WERE THREE DINGS, TRACTION CONTROL OFF. THIS TIME ENGINE POWER REDUCED, TOTALLY UNEXPECTED. THE TORRENT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ABOVE 15 MPH, IT FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WERE HOLDING THE VEHICLE BACK THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AT 4000 RPM. TURNED OFF CAR, WAITED A MINUTE RESTARTED, RAN FINE. ENGINE POWER REDUCED COMES ON A DAILY BASIS. I CAN'T TRUST THIS VEHICLE NOW! *TR |
