Pontiac Torrent Visibility Defroster/defogger System Safety Report | Nov 13, 2013
Reported on Nov 13, 2013
| I AM TOTALLY OUTRAGED FINDING OUT THAT GM PLACED A NON SAFE PART ON THIS TRUCK THAT I BOUGHT BRAND NEW. IT WILL COST $1000.00 EVEN AFTER KEEPING THIS TRUCK MAINTENANCE FREE, TROUBLE FREE FROM REGULAR MAINTENANCE AT THE DELIVER THAT I PURCHASED IT FROM. I AM VERY UPSET THAT THIS PART WAS NOT RECALLED AS THE PART COSTS BETWEEN $22-100.00 WHILE THE LABOR BECAUSE OF WHERE IT IS WILL COST UP TO $1000.00 AT THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM AND GET REGULAR MAINTENANCE CHECK UPS WITH. I TOTALLY AGREE WITH ALL OF THE CONSUMERS ON HERE: THE ACTUATOR THAT OPERATES THE HEATER BLEND DOOR - OVEREXTENDS AND BREAKS THE HEATER BLEND DOOR. THIS CAUSES THE HEATER TO NOT WORK AT ALL. THE ACTUATORS ARE DEFECTIVE AND THE HEATER DOORS ARE DEFECTIVE BECAUSE THEY BREAK DUE TO A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. IF THE HEAT DOESN'T WORK THE WINDOWS WON'T DEFROST SO THIS IS A VISIBILITY HAZARD. I ALSO LISTED IT AS AN ELECTRICAL AND UNKNOWN HAZARD. *TR | |
