“My passenger seatbelt warning light stays on when I have a passenger in the front. The ignition switch clicks constantly. The key keeps getting stuck in the ignition switch. The car engine skips whenever I slow down or accelerate. All of this happens whenever I'm driving highway or in town except for when I'm parked and the keys gets stuck in the ignition switch. Please help!!”
NHTSA complaint #11350048, filed 2020-08, 90,895 miles“Key does not always come out of the ignition. Vehicle is driven and when stopped the key will not come out. Steering wheel is not locked. When I called the dealership and told them the problem, I was told that I need to stop the vehicle always on a flat surface, put the car in park, pull the emergency brake , then turn the key and it will come out that way. That is ridiculous and it doesn't work.”
NHTSA complaint #10689888, filed 2015-02, 129,220 miles“The wires which power the door window motor, electric locks and door speakers broke inside the rubber boot assembly which attaches the wire harness to the door and the door frame. Performing an online google search indicates this problem is endemic to the 2006-2009 Pontiac Torrent. I have repaired the wires in the harness but they broke again, january of 2015. I feel this is a safety issue that needs to be investigated.”
NHTSA complaint #10689860, filed 2015-02, 108,233 miles“I own a 2007 Pontiac Torrent and I was having trouble with my drivers side window not working and also the auto lock on my door(even with the keyless remote. It turns out that the wire harness had 4 broken wires and 1 more that was almost broken all the way thru. We were told that we were lucky that a fire did not start!”
NHTSA complaint #10349509, filed 2010-08, 34,908 miles“I cut my car on this morning and the service traction control, service stabilitrac, and ABS lights were on. They stayed on throughout my drive to take my son to and from school. I just got this vehicle last night and the dealer said everything checked out fine as car was placed GM on a roll inspection . It was checked 2 days in a row and I have the paperwork showing as nothing wrong. I check on it today online and it seems to be a common issue with this vehicle.”
