Consumer Description

I OWN A 2006 PONTIAC TORRENT DRIVING ALONG ONE DAY AND THE HEAT JUST WENT OUT. THIS CAUSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION AS THE DEFROST STOPPED WORKING AS WELL. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR IN THE WINTER FOR GOING ON THREE YEARS NOW ITS JUST NOT SAFE. DUE TO THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FILED FOR THIS SAME EXACT THING IT IS UNBELIEVABLE TO ME THAT THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT FORCE GM TO CONDUCT A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. *KB
