NHTSA Complaint #10690771 — 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK

-25 F, 2 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME, 7 PM AT NIGHT, TWO KIDS IN THE CAR, AND TREACHEROUS ROAD CONDITIONS ~ TRANSMISSION FAILS !!!! WAS IN THE SHOP LESS THEN TWO WEEKS PRIOR FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT & SERVICE STABILITRAK/TRACTION CONTROL WARNINGS. GM DEALER CLEARED LIGHTS & SAID THEY WERE HISTORIC & NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD & IT ISN'T HUNDRED OF CARS AFFECTED, ITS THOUSANDS AND PROBABLY TENS OF THOUSANDS (AS THESE TRANSMISSIONS PLAGUE THE OUTLOOKS, ACADIAS, TRAVERSES, & ENCLAVES). SO FAR GM IS DOING NOTHING ~ APPARENTLY IT TAKES PEOPLE DYING TO ISSUE MAJOR RECALLS, AND EVEN THEN IT TAKES MANY YEARS AND INVESTIGATIONS BY VARIOUS AGENCIES. UNACCEPTABLE AND CRIMINAL !!!! I HAVE OPENED UP A CASE WITH GM CORPORATE TO SEE IF ANYTHING WILL BE DONE TO OFFSET OR EVEN COVER THE COST OF REPLACING THE JUNK TRANSMISSION ($3800) ~ BUT, AFTER READING COUNTLESS BLOGS, WEBPAGES, ECT OF OTHER PEOPLES EXPERIENCES WITH GM, I AM NOT HOLDING MY BREATH. I WILL CERTAINLY JUMP ON THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAGON, IF IT EXISTS, OR WHEN IT DOES COME TO FRUITION !!! THIS IS CERTAINLY THE LAST GM PRODUCT I WILL EVER BUY! FURTHERMORE, I WILL TAKE TO SOCIAL MEDIA AND ANY OTHER PLACE I CAN TO TELL MY STORY AND MAKE SURE OTHERS KNOW ABOUT THESE CARS AND THE "SERVICE" THAT GM PROVIDES. *TR
