Consumer Description

ON DELIVERY OF 2006 PONTIAC TORRENT ON JULY 10, 2015, I EXPERIENCED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH, THE OVERWHELMING SMELL OF GAS FUEL EMITTING WITHIN THE INTERIOR. I ALSO NOTICED AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP THE MOTOR BEGAN TO SOUND AS IF I WAS ESCALATING INTO THE ATMOSPHERE ON AN AIRPLANE TO 13000 FEET IN THE AIR. THE VEHICLE IS VERY INVITING, HOWEVER; THE EXTERIOR PAINT AS WELL AS THE INTERIOR HAS TOUCHED UP PRIOR TO RESALE.
