Pontiac Torrent Electrical System Safety Report | Nov 14, 2011
Reported on Nov 14, 2011
| THE HEAT WENT OUT IN MY 2006 PONTIAC TORRENT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR. I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE PONTIAC TORRENT. THE LABOR ALONE ON THIS PROBLEM IS $1200.00. THE PART ITSELF IS ONLY COSTING ME $35.00. I FEEL THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT GETS VERY COLD IN INDIANA FOR WINTER, AND WHEN YOU HAVE NO HEAT, AND ONLY COLD AIR BLOWING OUT IT REDUCES VISIBILITY TO ALMOST ZERO. WHY ISN'T GM RECALLING THIS PART? HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T FEEL THIS IS AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO KEEP AN HONEST BUSINESS RUNNING. PLEASE MAKE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM AND REIMBURSE PEOPLE FOR THE COST. *TR | |
