2006 Pontiac Torrent

MY SUNROOF DRAINS CLOGS REPEATEDLY WHICH CAUSES ANKLE DEEP WATER TO PUDDLE INSIDE. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED FROM WORK LAST MONTH BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AFTER RAIN LEAKED EVERYWHERE. IN ADDITION I HAD TO BUM A RIDE TO WORK BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE DUE TO THE FACT IT WAS WET FROM THE RAIN. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON CAUSING MY CAR TO LOSE SPEED. ALTHOUGH PEDAL IS PUSH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO FLOOR IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I WOULD HATE TO BE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AND LOSE SPEED DURING RUSH HOUR. *TR

THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45 MPH THE VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE DEFECT. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE HEATER OR AIR CONDITIONER A MIST WAS COMING FROM THE VENTS LEAVING A RESIDUE INSIDE THE CABIN. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE HEATED SEAT WAS EXTREMELY HOT TO THE TOUCH AND A ELECTRICAL BURNING ODOR WAS PRESENT. THE DEFROST MALFUNCTIONED WHICH CREATED A VISIBILITY HAZARD. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR WAS THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85000.

SLOWING DOWN AT A STOP SIGN FROM 30MPH I NOTICE MY BRAKE PEDAL STUTTER LIKE THE ABS WAS ACTIVATED. IT WOULD ONLY HAPPEN A FEW TIMES A DAY, ALL A RANDOM THROUGH OUT THE DAY. AFTER 3 DAYS OF THIS, THE ABS LIGHT AND TC LIGHT CAME ON. IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH FRONT LEFT HUB ASSEMBLY NEEDING TO BE REPLACED AT $650. THIS WAS COMPLETED ON A FRIDAY. BY WEDNESDAY I WAS FEELING STUTTERING IN THE BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN AND THE ABS LIGHT CAME BACK ON. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE, SO THEY REPLACE THE HUB ASSEMBLY AGAIN, THINKING THERE WAS A DEFECT. THIS OCCURRED LAST FRIDAY. TODAY IS TUESDAY AND MY BRAKES STUTTERED AGAIN THIS MORNING AND THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. THEY NOW PROPOSE THAT THERE IS A CONTROL MODULE ISSUE OR A WIRING HARNESS ISSUE. I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A QUOTE FOR THE NEW REPAIRS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC TORRENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE PCM WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT 45MPH ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED AND STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT. ALL DASH LIGHTS STILL ILLUMINATED RADIO FUNCTIONAL. COASTED TO SIDE OF ROAD, FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO VEHICLE BEHIND ME AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. I TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE WOULD NOT CRANK. I WAITED FIVE MINUTES AND THEN THE ENGINE WOULD CRANK AND START. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE SECURITY FUNCTION OF THE PCM WAS DEFECTIVE AND CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP TO STOP. *TR

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I HAD MY HEATED SEAT TURNED ON AND I NOTICED MY BACK GETTING HOT. I PULLED OVER AND MY SEAT HAD A HOLE BURNED IN IT AND HAD BURNED MY SHIRT AS WELL AS MY BACK. I HAVE NOTIFIED GMC ALREADY AND THEY CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE ASKING ME TO PAY $500.00 TO HAVE MY SEAT FIX. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURES PROBLEM AND IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE. I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE AND NOTICED I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE STATED THEY WERE BURNED AS WELL. I NEED SOMETHING TO BE DONE BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE 500.00 TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I AM ASKING FOR SOME HELP. *TR
