About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Key does not always release from ignition switch. Must play with button :fast pushes on shift gear changer until clicking are heard and key releases. The car only has 30,000 miles. Told cost would be at least $350 to fix. Tire sensors have already gone out too.

My 2008 pontaic Torrent front door and front passenger door do not lock with the fob, the back doors do. And while in drive, they do not automatically lock, I have to manually lock the doors. Safety hazard. I have read on the internet that this is a very common problem, something about frayed harness wires. Very disappointed, this should not be a common problem.

Left side windows and locks will not open with key or remote periodically. Air bag light off when sitting and comes on when no one on pasngr side. Car was rear ended and front ended but ferrman stated they fixed properly. Door locks and windows worked fine before that and air bag has been a problem but stating I have to pay for all repairs. I feel that there are enough air bag recalls to add the 2008 to the list of 2007 ones. This vehicle is a limited edition. Only two yrs made. Parts are very expensive and hard to get now. These are manufactured defects since I had the window and door lock changed on the drivers door at cost of over $400. And still doenst work again. After driving a few blocks and stop my doors and windows open properly. I think they were jarred in the accident and fixed by ferman properly in fl. We were rear and front ended and we were stopped and the truck hit us at approx. 60 miles per hr.
