Pontiac Torrent 2007 — Problemas reportados

The passenger air bag indicator light indicates passenger air bag is OFF even when an adult is sitting in the seat. Therefore. I am afraid that if the vehicle were in an accident where airbags would deploy, the front right passenger airbag would not inflate. There is a recall on the sensors for the front right passenger airbag for my vehicle make model and year but according to my VIN my vehicle is not part of that recall. I suspect it should be.

My car says service stabilitrak and my traction control light is still on whether I hit the button or not I just spent a grand for it to be fixed and it I’m still having the same issue my brakes will lock up or my wheel locks up uncontrollably I have almost gotten into numerous accidents because of it.

Passenger air bag light on and seat belt light

gas tank leaking

Passenger side air bag light is staying off even when an adult is seated there.

PASSENGER AIR BAG STAYS OFF WHEN PERSON SITS IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT.

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. JUMPED BATTERY TO GET STARTED. STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN. SHUT OFF AFTER LETTING RUN TO CHARGE BATTERY. SHUIT OFF. VEHICLE WILL NOT RESTART AND THE KEY CANNOT BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED. THE LAST TIME THE POWER STEERING MOTOR CONTROL AND THE STABILITY CONTROL MODULE WAS REPLACED. ALL THIS WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE. VEHICLE HAS 26000 MILES ON IT.

WHEN I TURN MY CAR ON, IT SAYS, "STABILITRAK OFF" , "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" , "SERVICE AIR BAG" , "SERVICE STABILITRAK".

DASH INDICATOR FOR PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG, WHICH I BELIEVE AFFECTS ALL AIRBAGS IN THIS VEHICLE, 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT, TURNS ON WHEN VEHICLE IS STARTED. I CALLED LOCAL DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE REPAIR WAS DONE SHORTLY AFTER IT WAS ISSUED. REGARDLESS OF THAT FACT THE SENSOR HAS FAILED AGAIN AND IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER OF THIS SENSOR ULTIMATELY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT, THE SELLING DEALER SHOULD ASSUME THAT RESPONSIBILITY.PLEASE ADVISE OF MY RIGHTS IN THIS MATTER.

I'M DRIVING RED TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I PRESS MY BRAKES TO STOP , AND TURN ON MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL LIGHT. I NOTICED THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURN GREEN SO I ACCELERATE AND TURN LEFT. WHILE ACCELERATE GENTLY I'M TURNING LEFT I REALIZED MY LEFT TIRE FELT STUCK AND I HEARD AND LITTLE WEIRD NOISE. I PROCEED DRIVING STRAIGHT I PRESS THE BRAKES BECAUSE THERE WAS VEHICLE ENTERING BY TURNING RIGHT AND DRIVING STRAIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKESI CONTINUE DRIVING PRESSING THE GAS PETAL ACCELERATING TO 5 SPEED MY VEHICLE SLOW DOWN . I DECIDED TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE JUST DROVE VERY SLOW. I DECIDED TO MAKE A QUICK RIGHT ON THE APPROACHING STREET WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE STOP IT JUST FROZE. I WENT AHEAD AND LOOK AT THE DASHBOARD AND SEE AN CODE THAT'S SAYS STABILIZE TRAC AND OTHER CODES . I PARK THE VEHICLE AND TOOK THE KEYS OF THE KEY IGNITION AND INSERT THE KEYS BACK TO START THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD STARTED SO , I DECIDED TO PARK THE CAR WHEN I DID PARK THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE END UP TURNING OFF . I WASN'T ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE ON. THE VEHICLE JUST WOULDN'T START ON. THERE IS A CODE STATING A STABILITY TRAK CODE ON THE DASHBOARD AND SOMETHING ABOUT THE BATTERY. I WAS VERY CONCERN BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER THAT'S 2YEARS OLD AND 11 MONTHS WAS WITH ME AND I HAD TO THINK FAST AND BE CAUTIOUS. I ENDS UP TOWING MY VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC. THIS IS MY RELIABLE VEHICLE FOR ME AN MY DAUGHTER . IF YOU CAN ASSIST ME WITH MY SITUATION I CAN BE REACH AT EMAIL: [XXX], OR CONTACT: [XXX]. SINCERELY [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

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!!

MY KEY KEEPS GETTING STUCK INSIDE THE IGNITION SWITCH. I'VE CLEANED IT OUT, HAD A NEW KEY MADE AND STILL GETS LOCK INSIDE WHILE IN USE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REAR ENDED IN OCTOBER OF 2019, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD GLAZES AS SHE WAS UNABLE TO SEE CLEARLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT WAS ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HALEY BUICK GMC MIDLOTHIAN (9831 MIDLOTHIAN TURNPIKE, RICHMOND, VA 23235) WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 146,000

WHEN I START MY 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT, IT SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. BEGINNING WHEN I START MY CAR TO THE TIME I TURN IT OFF, IT SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. I FLY THROUGH GASOLINE AND CANNOT FILL MY TAN ANYMORE THAN $10.00 OR ELSE IT GOES TO WASTE. SMELLS LIKE THERE IS A LEAK OR CRACK SOMEWHERE TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE CAR. IT'S A EXTREMELY STRONG ODOR!

THE KEY CONTINUES TO GET STUCK IN THE IGNITION, I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN IT STARTED HAPPENING, BUT IT DID NOT DISPLAY THE PROBLEM AT THE TIME SO IT CAN NOT BE FIXED. NOW THE PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE WHERE IT IS HAPPENING EVERYTIME I TURN OFF MY SUV AND THE KEY WILL NOT RELEASE UNTIL AN HOUR LATER, WHICH IS DRAINING THE BATTERY. I HAVE HAD TO PURCHASE NEW BATTERIES BEFORE NEEDED AND CAR UNABLE TO RESTART BECAUSE OF THE DRAIN BATTERY. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR ME, WHICH HAS LEFT ME STRANDED. SEVERAL OTHER PONTICS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.

TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A DEALER TO DIAGNOSE WHY MY PASSENGER AIRBAG WOULD TURN OFF INTERMITTENTLY, I WAS TOLD THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE IS FAILING. AFTER A SHORT SEARCH IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS MAKE/MODEL. ANYTHING THAT COULD CAUSE AIRBAGS TO NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. SINCE PRESENCE MODULES ARE INTEGRAL TO OCCUPANT SAFETY THEY SHOULD BE GOOD FOR THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE. THE LARGE AMOUNT OF OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE ALSO HAD THIS SAME ISSUE LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE ORIGINAL PARTS WERE FAULTY.

THE VEHICLE DELAYS SPEED ALMOST TO A CRAWL DURING ACCELERATION BETWEEN 40 AND 60 MILES PER HOUR. I SMELL GAS CONSTANTLY. DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE VEHICLE IS DOING. BUT THE SMELL IS VERY STRONG WHEN I GET GAS, GO AROUND CORNERS, AND WHEN IT'S WARM OUT. THE FUMES GIVE MY HUSBAND AND I HEADACHES. I FEAR FOR MY TWO SMALL CHILDREN WHO RIDE IN THE CAR. THE FUEL LINES WERE REPLACED LAST SPRING TO PASS EMISSIONS TESTING. I'VE DONE RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND SEE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ISSUED FOR FUEL PROBLEMS IN WARMER STATES. HOWEVER, THE STATE I LIVE HAS EXTREME TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS FROM HOT TO COLD. AND GETS VERY COLD HERE IN THE WINTER. I'M NOT SURE IF THE EXTREME CHANGES COULD AFFECT WHAT PART WAS RECALLED. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. SO AS TO THE DURATION OF THE ONGOING ISSUE, I AM UNSURE. ALTHOUGH, I'VE HAD IT NOW FOR A MONTH.

SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW ! SITTING IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE ; IT DOESNT SENSE ANYONE SITTING THERE AND ALWAYS SHOW AIRBAG OFF AND DASH SAYS SERVICE AIR BAG !!! I DONT WANT TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SEAT WHICH IS AROUND $1,000 ; WHAT'S THE DIY SOLUTON HERE I AM NOT SAFE IN THIS CAR WITH SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT ON 100% OF TIME. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND IT HAS 160K NOW !

FOR THE PAST 1 1/2 YEARS MY CAR HAS BEEN SMELLING LIKE GAS. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY GAS CAP NOT SEALING. I BOUGHT A COUPLE NEW GAS CAP'S I WAS ABLE TO FIND ONE FROM ANOTHER TORRENT. IT DOES SEAL BUT SOMETIMES IT COMES UNSEALED. I HAVEN'T HAD THE ISSUE LOOKED AT BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT. EVERY TIME I'M IN MY CAR I FEAR THAT IT'S GOING TO EXPLODE. IT'S EVEN SCARIER WHEN I HAVE MY GRANDDAUGHTERS WITH ME. TODAY I WENT TO GET AN OIL CHANGE AND THEY TOOK MY CAR OUT OF THE BAY IMMEDIATELY. THEY TOLD ME I HAD A SEVERE FUEL LEAK AND I SHOULDN'T DRIVE IT ANYMORE BECAUSE MY CAR COULD EXPLODE. THERE IS A MECHANIC RIGHT NEXT-DOOR AND THEY VERIFIED THAT I DO INDEED HAVE A BAD FUEL LEAK. TOMORROW I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THEM DROP MY TANK TO SEE WHAT THE LEAK IS COMING FROM. FROM RESEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR ISSUES LIKE THIS I FOUND THAT GM RECALLED THE 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT WITH CAMPAIGN NUMBER OF 12V459000. THE RECALL IS FOR FAULTY FUEL PUMPS. UNFORTUNATELY MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME I'VE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE FROM PEOPLE WITH THE SAME CAR AND THE SAME ISSUE. I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX MY CAR AND GET A NEW FUEL PUMP. I FEEL THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD REPLACE THIS FOR ME. GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMPS FOR MANY YEARS NOW BUT DID NOT NOTIFY ALL OWNERS. IT SHOULD BE A NATIONAL RECALL NOT JUST A RECALL FOR A FEW STATES. MY FAMILY'S LIVES ARE AT STAKE EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY CAR WITH A FAULTY FUEL PUMP. - UPDATE THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP CAUSING A SEVERE FUEL LEAK. FOR MY SAFETY I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

MY FAMILY'S LIVES ARE AT STAKE EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY CAR WITH A FAULTY FUEL PUMP. THIS FAULTY FUEL PUMP COULD HAVE KILLED ME AND MY FAMILY.

FOR THE PAST YEAR OR TWO MY CAR HAS BEEN SMELLING LIKE GAS. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY GAS CAP BECAUSE IT STOPPED SEALING. I REPLACED IT SEVERAL TIMES WITH A NEW ONE. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET AN ORIGINAL GAS CAP FROM ANOTHER TORRENT FROM FROM A JUNKYARD. THE GAS CAP GOES ON AND SEALS BUT STILL SOMETIMES COMES UNSEALED. I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING REGARDING THE SMELL OF GAS BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT OR HAVE ANYBODY LOOK AT THE PROBLEM. TODAY I DECIDED TO GO HAVE AN OIL CHANGE AND THEY IMMEDIATELY PULLED MY CAR OUT OF THE BAY. THEY TOLD ME I NEED TO STOP DRIVING MY CAR BECAUSE THERE IS A SEVERE FUEL LEAK AND MY CAR COULD EXPLODE. THANKFULLY THERE IS A MECHANIC RIGHT NEXT-DOOR AND I HAD THEM LOOK AND THERE IS A VERY BAD FUEL LEAK. TOMORROW I AM SCHEDULED TO HAVE THEM DROP THE TANK SO THAT THEY CAN FIND OUT WHAT IS LEAKING. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR ISSUES LIKE THIS AND I CAME ACROSS THE RECALL FROM GM FOR A FUEL PUMPS FOR A 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT THE RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER IS 12V459000. HOWEVER, THIS RECALL STATES THAT MY CAR DOESN'T QUALIFY. THIS DOES NOT MAKE SENSE TO ME I HAVE READ SO MANY THINGS ON THIS SITE THAT SHOW MANY OTHER VEHICLES LIKE MINE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. FOR THE PAST SIX MONTHS OR SO THE SMELL OF THE FUEL HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY CAR I HAVE THOUGHTS AND VISIONS OF IT BLOWING UP. IT SCARES ME WHEN I HAVE TO HAVE MY GRANDDAUGHTERS WITH ME I FEAR FOR THEM. I HAVE ALSO BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING MY CAR LATELY AND WITH MY RESEARCH IT SEEMS LIKE IT COULD BE FROM A LEAKING FUEL PUMP. I FEEL THAT MY CAR SHOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED AND OR REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX A DEFAULTED FUEL PUMP THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAS KNOWN ABOUT BUT HAS NOT NOTIFIED ALL OWNERS OF A 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT. MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF MY GRANDDAUGHTERS SHOULD BE SAFE IN MY CAR.

2007 PONTIAC TORRENT WITH A STRONG GAS ODOR NEAR THE REAR OF THE CAR AFTER PARKED. UPON PUTTING THE CAR ON A LIFT, DISCOVERED GASOLINE LEAKING FROM THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. RESEARCHED AND FOUND RECALLS ON THIS MODELS IN CERTAIN SOUTHERN STATES, BUT, NOT IN ILLINOIS. I HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS BUT ARE NOT IN THE RECALL STATES. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED TO AVOID A DANGEROUS FIRE OR EXPLOSION. THIS VEHICLE COULD BE REGISTERED IN A RECALL STATE AND IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. WAS A DEAL STRUCK WITH GENERAL MOTORS? THE RECALL NUMBER FOR SOUTHER STATES IS NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT. WHILE THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND WAS INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, HE DETECTED A FUEL ODOR AND NOTICED FUEL LEAKING UNDER THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT A NEW FUEL PUMP MODULE WAS NEEDED. THE CONTACT CALLED MOREHART MURPHY REGIONAL AUTO CENTER (LOCATED AT 31 PARKER AVE, DURANGO, CO 81303, (970) 247-2121) AND NOTIFIED THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

ABS, STABILITRACK SERVICE/OFF, SERVICE ENGIN LIGHTS, NO WAY TO FIX!

"TAKATA RECALL" WE JUST GOT THIS CAR IT JUST STARTED LEAKING AROUND THE FUEL TANK. MY HUSBAND BELIEVES THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE FUEL PUMP. THE FUEL GAGE HAS NOT WORKED SINCE BEFORE WE GOT THE CAR. IT CAME FROM WINDOWROCK, ARIZONA, WAS SOLD TO A DEALERSHIP IN FARMINGTON, NM. THEN IT WAS SOLD TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP IN KIRTLAND, NM. WE HAVE IT NOW AND HAVE HAD IT ALMOST A MONTH. THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ARE ON. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ERROR IS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I WAS LOOKING FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUEL PUMP LOCATION AND HOW TO CHANGE IT OUT. I SAW SOMETHING ABOUT THE FUEL PUMP LEAKS AND AIRBAG PROBLEMS BEING A RECALL ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL OUT OF ARIZONA. WE DON'T KNOW IF THERE HAVE BEEN PREVIOUS ISSUES WITH THIS PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE. WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT OUR CAR IS NOT GOING TO CATCH FIRE DUE TO THIS FUEL PUMP LEAK, ESPECIALLY IF IT IS A VEHICLE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND NO ONE HEEDED THAT RECALL OR THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE RECALL. WE WANT TO BE AND STAY SAFE, AND TO HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE. THE LEAK WAS NOTICED WHEN THE 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT WAS PARKED. IT LEAKS MORE AND QUITE A LOT OF GAS WHILE IT IS PARKED OR NOT MOVING SUCH AS AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, WHILE WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE. IT MAY BE LEAKING WHILE IT IS TRAVELING DOWN THE STREET, HIGHWAY ETC. WE DON'T KNOW FOR SURE. WHILE PARKED AT THE GROCERY STORE FOR ABOUT 15 TO 20 MINUTES IT LEAKED A PUDDLE OF GAS ABOUT THE SIZE OF A BASKETBALL AROUND ONTO THE PARKING LOT WHERE WE WERE JUST PARKED IN A SPACE. THIS SEEMS LIKE A DANGEROUS OR POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SHOULD THIS HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE VEHICLES RECALLED? WE REALLY NEED THIS UNSAFE SITUATION CORRECTED SO THAT IT DOESN'T CATCH FIRE AND ONE OF US OR SOMEONE ELSE BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIE IN A CAR FIRE FROM THIS PROBLEM.

THERE IS NO RECALLS ON MY TORRENT BUT MY CAR IN POWER REDUDE MODE AND I HAD IT FIXED THEN I CAME BACK A WEEK LATER AND STABILITYTRAK AND TRACKING CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS I FIX IT AND THEY COMES BACK

FUEL SMELL AFTER DRIVING. GASOLINE LEAKING FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. STABILITRAX SYSTEM LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER THE CODE WAS CLEARED BY A CERTIFIED GM MECHANIC.

FOR ONE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR HAS BEEN WORKING ON AND OFF FOR LAST COUPLE YEARS AND NOW HASN'T BEEN WORKING FOR LAST MONTH! THEY KEEP TELLING ME MY VIN IS NOT IN RECALL? NOW BOTH AIRBAGS ARE NOT WORKING? 2 THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR CAUSE MY WIFE TO ALMOST GET KILLED WHEN IT FAILED AND SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED BEING DISPLAYED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE TRYING TO CROSS AN INTERSECTION! WE REPLACED THAT OURSELVES. BUT WE'VE BEEN VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS VEHICLE WITH ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES NOT BEING COVERED!

I HAVE A CHECK LEAK IN A FITTING ABOVE THE GAS TANK THAT IS LEAKING ON THE EXHAUST. SEVERAL MECHANICS HAVE SEEN THIS LEAK AND FIXED IT UNDER A RECALL BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY GM THAT MY PARTICULAR VIN IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT'S THE ED ACT SAME PROBLEM. IT LEAKS CONSTANTLY.

SHORTLY AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED, A SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING STARTED TO APPEAR. WE WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD US THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SENSOR WAS BAD AND THAT THE ENTIRE SEAT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WE WERE NOT GOING TO PAY TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SEAT. RECENTLY WE DISCOVERED GM RECALL BULLETIN 07174 DATED AUGUST 2007 WHICH INCLUDES THIS VEHICLE'S VIN. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT OUR VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THIS RECALL NOTICE SUGGEST THAT "DEALERS ARE TO REPROGRAM THE SEAT'S ELECTRIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU) TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NO REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE REQUIRED. OUR DEALER REFUSES TO REPROGRAM THE ECU UNLESS WE PAY FOR THE REPROGRAMMING AND THAT HE WAS NOT GOING TO GUARANTEE A PRICE FOR THE REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE ELECTRONIC GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND INTERIOR LIGHTING SUDDENLY TURNED OFF AND ON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (ELHART GMC, 822 CHICAGO DR., HOLLAND MI) WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 145,000.

RECENTLY NOTICED A SMELL OF GASOLINE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. NOTICED IT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AT FIRST BUT NOW CAN SMELL IT ON THE INSIDE AS WELL. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR JUST SITTING. SMELL IS COMING FROM REAR OF CAR CLOSE TO GAS TANK.

THERE WAS A VIVID GASOLINE SMELL INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND ON THE OUTSIDE RIGHT REAR BY THE GAS TANK, TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS WAS THE RETURN PORT ON THE FUEL PUMP MODULE THAT HAD CRACKED, WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND A NICE PART FOR MY BRAKES OR ANYWHERE COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE. I FIND OUT THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE PLASTIC SUPPLIER RETURN PORT SO I HAD MY MECHANIC SAVE MY PART ON MY VEHICLE AND IT IS DOCUMENTED THAT THIS IS THE ACTUAL PART THAT IS ON RECALL FROM OTHER 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND I BELIEVE IT NEEDS ATTENTION BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED BUY AN EXPLOSION OR FIRE.

CANNOT REMOVE IGNITION KEY WHEN CAR IS PARKED WITH SHIFTER IN PARK POSITION. KEY CAN GO NO FURTHER THAN ACCESSORIES. AFTER WAITING SEVERAL MINUTES KEY IS EVENTUALLY RELEASED. THIS SEVERAL MINUTE DELAY COMPELS ME TO SOMETIME WALK AWAY WITH THE KEY IN THE ACCESSORIES POSITION AND THE CAR UNLOCKED. I HAVE REPLACED THE IGNITION KEY CYLINDER WHICH WAS NO HELP. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF.

YEARS AGO WE STARTED SMELLING GASOLINE AROUND THE VEHICLE, WE ASSUMED THAT WAS NORMAL, BUT TWO MONTHS AGO THE ODOR STARTED SMELLING EVEN INSIDE THE CAR CAUSING US HEADACHES. I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD, I FOUND NOTHING; LATER I DECIDED TO INSPECT UNDER THE CAR. IT WAS THEN THAT I NOTICED FUEL WAS COMING OUT FROM THE UPPER SIDE OF THE TANK FUEL DOWN INTO THE WIRING CONNECTORS, WHICH WERE SOAKED IN FUEL. AT THIS POINT I HAVE STOPPED DRIVING THE CAR.

SMELL STRONG FUEL LEAK IN THE BACK OF THE CAR BY GAS TANK.

VEHICLE SMELLS LIKE RAW GASOLINE AND LEAKS FUEL IF TANK IS FILLED --NOTICEABLE ON THE OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE --WHEN STORED IN GARAGE THE WHOLE AREA SMELLS LIKE RAW GASOLINE--THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP AND I BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE HAS THE SAME ISSUE OF THE CRACKED FUEL LINE FROM THE TANK--WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2016 FROM THE GM DEALER IN WAHOO SID DILLON IT WAS USED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A STRONG FUEL ODOR COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL LINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 217,059.
