Pontiac Torrent Electronic Stability Control Safety Report | July 16, 2007
Reported on July 16, 2007
| THE DATE IS THE FIRST INCIDENT, HAD SEVERAL AFTER THAT. I OWNED THE VEHICLE 8 DAYS WHEN THE STABILIZATION, TRACTION CONTROL, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON, SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID IT WAS A SPEED SENSOR, THEY WOULD ORDER PART. I TOOK IT BACK TO GET IT FIXED, 30 MINUTES LATER SAME PROBLEM AGAIN, LIGHTS CAME ON, SO I WENT BACK, THEY ASSURED ME THEY FIXED IT AND IT WAS A QUOTE LIGHTS ONLY ISSUE. A MONTH LATER TOOK IT BACK AGAIN AND LOW AND BEHOLD THE SAME CODE CAME UP AGAIN, SO EITHER THEY FIXED A BAD PART WITH A BAD PART OR ELSE THEY DIDN'T REALLY FIX IT. IT ALSO HAD BEEN RUNNING IN ALL WHEEL DRIVE THE WHOLE TIME, WHICH THEY TOLD ME IT WASN'T THE FIRST TIME. I STILL DIDN'T FEEL SAFE SO TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER AND THEY CHECKED AND SAID THE STEERING COMPUTER NEEDED REPROGRAMMED, BUT ON MYGMLINK.COM IT SAID THEY REPLACED THE STEERING COMPUTER AND THE GAS CAP. HERE IT IS 02/06/08 AND ANOTHER ISSUE CAME UP, DEAD BATTERY. *TR | |
