I have had my Torrent for 3+ years now and for the most part have loved it. I have been told that they are discontinuing this model which is upsetting. I have had some problems with parts/repairs. Wished it had a 5 year/100,000 warranty. I don't think the 3 year/36,000 covers long enough.
Plugged Heater Core

I've loved my Torrent. It drives great and looks great. But, I've had it almost exactly 2 years and the heater stopped working. Per the dealership, I've got a plugged heater core wich is $400-500 to fix. They also have another Torrent in the shop right now with the same problem. This seems a bit odd to me that 2006 Torrents would start having this problem. Wished it had a 5 year/100,000 warranty. I don't think the 3 year/36,000 covers long enough.

First time SUV Crossover owner

This is my first SUV crossover that I have owned and I am very pleased with the performase of this vehicle. It has plenty cargo pace (for my family's needs), and the rear passenger area is big and confortable too (according to my wife). I like the way it handles and the fast acceleration it provides (I am no F1 driver, mind you). My previous car was a 1999 Grand Am, and I loved it until the day I sold it. I am looking forward to own this one for at least 10 years!
Excellent SUV - Fun to drive

Excellent SUV! Drives well and looks great. Gas mileage is decent, with the engine offering plenty of power and pep. I'm 6'2", and I find the seats very comfortable with plenty of legroom. My Torrent has the "Crystal Lake" paint color, which sometimes looks blue, sometimes green, sometimes purple! GM has definitely improved on their interiors with this car
Love the features of this car

I fell in love with this car when I first saw it. It had so many great features on the interior (heated seats, dark fabric, easy wheel mounted controls, temp. display etc...). I drove the car off the lot, and 7 days later the check if engine light was on. After numerous "smaller repairs" I noticed a rattling sound and brought it in...the engine needed to be taken out to replace a loose cap inside of it ($3,500) luckily it was covered by warranty. I absolutely love this car, but it is so unreliable I am trading it in after 6 months. Now I am also out the $700 I paid for snow tires because of the extended rim size uncommon to other vehicles.
