Consumer Description

I WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH AND WATER POURED OUT OF THE READING LIGHTS AND ALSO ON TO THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER FLOORS. MY TORRENT WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN I PUT IT INTO DRIVE. EVENTUALLY, AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES, IT WOULD GO FORWARD A LITTLE BIT IF I PUT THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND HELD IT FOR ABOUT ONE MINUTE. EVERY TIME I STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT, THE TORRENT WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS - UNTIL I HELD THE PEDAL DOWN FOR A LONG TIME AND THEN IT WOULD CREEP FORWARD SLOWLY. I CANNOT GO THROUGH CAR WASHES ANY LONGER. THE AIR CONDITIONER AND HEAT WORK INTERMITTENTLY - SOMETIMES JUST FINE, SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL - DEPENDS ON THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE IT SEEMS. I DO NOT GET ANY WARM AIR WHEN THE DEFROST IS ON.
