2008 Pontiac Torrent Fuel system Problems

“Vehicle with around 100k. Traction control has been disabled for about two years for no reason. Goes off sporadically. Now vehicle is overheating for no reason. I've been told that there are no indications of headgasket. Oil is clean, overflow is full, no leaks to be seen. Overheats mostly when standing idle. Vehicle is a headache. How are there no recalls for this vehicle when multiple people are stating the same issues? Vehicle is driving normally besides that. Most of our driving is in town / highway driving (less than 20miles distance). …”

“There is a very strong fuel smell from under the vehicle it does not matter if I have a full tank or almost empty tank of gas. There is no visible leaks anywhere. I am a mother of two small children and this is very concerning to me.”

Upon checking online I found multiple recalls on other GM vehicles of the same year for the same problem. …”

“I have a fuel leak on my 2008 Pontiac Torrent. Basically recall number 12v459000 for the 2007 Torrent. The plastic supply or return port on the fuel pump module may crack, which could cause a fuel leak. My year vehicle is not listed on the recall, when it should be. This is my exact problem.this is a very dangerous problem and should be addressed in more than just the 2007 Torrent. The fix is over $700. I smelled gas through the vents while driving, noticed some jerking or skipping in the gas petal being pushed. I parked and the gas smell was very strong. …”
