Consumer Description

WE HAVE A 2004 SATURN VUE AWD AND THE TRANSMISSION FLOATS BETWEEN OVERDRIVE AND THE LOWER GEAR CONSTANTLY, WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 35 AND 45 MPH. THERE IS A LOW GRINDING NOISE AND A SHUDDER IN THE CAR WHEN IT SHIFTS TO THE LOWER GEAR, REQUIRING YOUR TO DOWNSHIFT THE CAR MANUALLY TO AVOID THE PROBLEM AT LOW SPEED. THE CAR ONLY HAS 53,000 MILES ON IT AND WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I'VE FOUND ONLINE, I'M NOW AFRAID TO LET MY WIFE TAKE THE VEHICLE ON LONG TRIPS. SURELY GM HAS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS? *TR. UPDATED 01-14-08. *KB THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER HAS RELUCTANTLY OFFERED TO COVER THE COST OF THE PARTS ONLY. UPDATED 12/12/07. *JB
