NHTSA Complaint #10628973 — 2007 SATURN AURA

I HAD MY 2007 AURA FOR 1 WEEK WHEN DRIVING A FREEWAY, THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT PAST 4TH GEAR. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AND THE TECHNICIAN FOUND STRANGE PARTICLES IN THE GEARS. HE DESCRIBED IT AS SMALL WHITE PLASTIC PIECES. NO EXPLANATION WHERE THEY CAME FROM OR WHAT THEY WERE. HE HAD NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. THE AURA, WHILE NOT LEAVING ME STRANDED HAS ALWAYS HAS A "POLTERGEIST", LIGHTS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, ENGINE LIGHTS COMING ON AND OFF AND NO REPAIRS NEEDED, ETC. I HAS ALWAYS IDLED STRANGELY, AS IF IT MIGHT SHUT OFF AT A STOP AND FELT AS IF MY RPM'S INCREASED BUT NO SPEED DURING ACCELERATION. NOW, THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, WHICH FEELS LIKE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE (VERY HARD JERKING DURING SHIFTING AND DOWN SHIFTING),THE CAR WON'T START AFTER FUELING. IT HAS NOT BEEN A VEHICLE OF TRUST. *TR
