#5 of 8 Squeaking in Minnesota by meam Jan 28, 2008 (6:13 am)
I love my 2007 Torrent, 9000 miles on it so far. I have had it in the shop 5 yes 5 times to find the reason for the brake squeaking, intermittent of course, that occurs when I am going downhill or backing out of the garage. They repaced the brake pads,turned the rot ors etc, still the same. Cold weather makes it worse. The dealer suggestion was to wash the truck weekly, as I live on a gravel road, since they couldn't figure anything else out! Any thoughts?
#6 of 8 Noise in the steering wheel column by gabriel2608 Aug 06, 2008 (10:54 am)
Hi I have a 2007 Torrent, 3 or 4 weeks ago it started with a noise in the steering wheel column, exactly below the steering wheel, I thought that was the rack, but yesterday I went with the dealer, and the service manager told me that the noise is normal, for the system of electronically assisted direction, in some cases is louder than mine, and is normal in Torrent, G5 and G6, I´m going to call to the GM plant in Mexico to find out if that it´s true, because the service manager told me that the GM plant is going to make a new kind of steering column that is going to avoid that kind of noises, have you heard something about it, if so I´d apreciate you comments and oppinions. Greetings from Colima, Mexico   PS. The warranty is valid to November 2008, and it´s 12500 miles. Replies to this message: dannyd3 (Aug 10, 2008 9:24 am) gabriel2608 (Aug 11, 2008 10:05 am)

Replying to: gabriel2608 (Aug 06, 2008 10:54 am) Read previous posts about this apparently there is a wire under the steering column that is rubbing making this noise and it can wear out the wire. Not a problem on my torrent but I guess some have this issue. just a thought Replies to this message: gabriel2608 (Aug 11, 2008 10:05 am)

Replying to: dannyd3 (Aug 10, 2008 9:24 am) Danny, or somebody else, do you have steering wheel column diagrams to know what´s that wire and if I can see it, to know how to fix it, or find another solution, thanks and grretings
