Torrent 3.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 87,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

First complaint: lights on controls for the heater/ac temp control, fan control and location are out. Dealer says the whole unit needs to be replaced for the lights to work. 2nd complaint: right front wheel bearing went out at 83,500 mi. $335 to repair. Now the left wheel bearing is making noise.85,800 mi. 3rd complaint: Power steering is now making a grinding/ whining noise. 86,200 mi 4th complaint: Bought this vehicle assuming it had cruise control. Owned it for 2 days and called the dealer and asked where the cruise control was located. HA HA the jokes on me, NO CRUISE CONTROL. I had an after market installed $375. 5th complaint: The roof rack is completely useless. I bought some items and needed to use the roof rack, HA HA the joke is on me again. This pos didn't even come with the cross bars needed for the roof rack. My wife came over with our 1990 Olds and I tied the items down on the roof of that car.

All I have to say is once again GM has proven it will make junk, year after year after year. They almost make a good vehicle but somehow always fall short of success. I will NEVER NEVER EVER buy another GM vehicle in my lifetime.
