Consumer Description

ON 12/12/13, CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE PROPERLY IN 1ST GEAR WHEN GAS PEDAL WAS PUSHED AND TRANSMISSION SHIFTED ROUGHLY THROUGH REMAINING GEARS. TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMP WAS 220+ DEGREES. TOOK CAR TO GM DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD TCM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, ALONG WITH TRANSMISSION FLUID FLUSH AND REFILL. DID AS RECOMMENDED. ON 2/4/14, AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND CAR WOULDN'T MOVE IN ANY GEAR. TRANS FLUID TEMP WAS FINE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR OTHER WARNINGS. CALLED ONSTAR, HAD IT TOWED TO THE SAME GM DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD THAT TRANSMISSION PAN WAS FILLED WITH METAL FLAKES. THERE WERE NO METAL FLAKES AS OF 12/12/13, AND NO ISSUES BETWEEN THOSE DATES. BOUGHT A REBUILT TRANSMISSION AND PICKED UP CAR 3/12/14. FILING MY COMPLAINT DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC TRANSMISSION.
