Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY ACADIA TO WORK ON MONDAY MORNING AND IT STARTED HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, IT WOULD NOT SHIFT IN THE LOWER GEARS AND WOULD REV UP TO 4-5 RPM BETWEEN GEARS. I DROVE IT TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP THE NEXT MORNING AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT, NEEDED A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION. UPON LEAVING THE TRANSMISSION SHOP, IT COMPLETELY STOP MOVING, CAUSING ME TO ROLL TO A COMPLETE STOP ON A HIGHWAY. I GOT IT PULLED OVER, STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTED IT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE A BLOCK OR SO BEFORE IT STOPPED AGAIN. I WAS STRANDED AND STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET IT TO A PARKING LOT AND HAD IT TOWED TO A DEALER TO LOOK AT. *TR
