Ask the dealer
Ive had my Torrent for some time now no big problems so far lots of little ones had it serviced the mechanic left radiator cap off over heated on a trip. I asked the dealership how to verify that AWD is operational, said to take it out put it in mud and try to see if it works, GM can't answer this question either. Worried about wheel bearings. Not good work from dealer shop.
Great S U V, for the money
This is a fun suv to drive, very comfortable and great handling on curves, with the awd. Like the pioneer premium 7-speaker sound system. Also like the sun roof, never have had that before on a car. Fuel economy could be better, but you can't have everything. I paid extra for the sporty running boards and they really look great and sporty with them on. Also like the radio controls on the steering wheel.

It's OK
So I had a Honda Civic and was forced to get rid of it for an SUV, not happy to begin with. Now I have 45K and my windshield has a 3+ crack that started from the right lower seal! Nothing hit my car. Now it's in my face. My rotors thump and my car won't crank over sometimes. I live in a snowy area and have driven it in the snow but never ever saw the AWD light kick on. It used to shift rough but now it's OK. I guess it was just because it was new. It's OK though, not happy with it but love the sunroof and definitely the stereo and sound system
Enjoying New Torrent
I wasn't interested in an SUV until I test drove a Torrent. I was very impressed on how it handled,and how enjoyable it was to drive. The interior also caught my eye with the great amount of leg room in the back.
So far so good
I've had my Torrent for a week. I love it! Sure, it's not a Lexus or Infiniti, but it is good value for the money. I happen to like the seats. They're firm, and they don't catch me under the knees like most car seats do. There is very little noise filtering in while on the highway. The back seat legroom is fantastic, as is entry/exit. And if you lower the back seat, you have tons of room. I think GM worked out some of the bugs from the Equinox and has a winner with the Torrent. There are a few things I don't care for, but just about every car has those things we don't like. I'd recommend it to anyone!
