Pontiac Torrent Steering Safety Report | Apr 01, 2013
Reported on Apr 01, 2013
| A FEW DAYS AGO MY TORRENT WHICH IS A 2006 MODEL, THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED LOCKING UP. IT HAPPENS WHEN I START THE TRUCK UP AND I PUT IT IN ANY GEAR. THE WHEEL ITSELF WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. LAST NIGHT WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND COMPLETELY STAYED STRAIGHT AND WOULD NOT MOVE. YESTERDAY IT LOCKED UP IN THE PARKING LOT BEFORE I WENT TO LEAVE THE WHEEL AGAIN WOULD NOT MOVE. I THEN PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE TRUCK AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL WHERE THE WHEEL WAS MOVING LIKE NORMAL. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS TRUCK. ITS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. THIS IS MY ONLY CAR AND IM A SINGLE MOM WITH A SMALL CHILD AND I DONT FEEL SAFE PUTTING MY CHILD IN THE TRUCK AND DRVING HIM AROUND WITH THE FEAR OF IT LOCKING UP AND THEN POSSIBLY HITTING SOMETHING AND HURTING US OR SOMEONE ELSE DUE TO A MALFUCTION. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. *TR | |
