NHTSA Complaint #10939156 — 2007 SATURN AURA

ON DECEMBER 30, 2016, I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE A HALF MILE @ 25 MPH TO A STOP SIGN, I PULLED ONTO RITCHIE HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF SECOND, THE ENGINE WENT TO 4,000 RPM, AND WOULD NOT GO OVER 35 MPH. I PULLED OFF ONTO THE SHOULDER, AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. AFTER WAITED 15 MINUTES. I STARTED THE ENGINE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I THAN WAITED TILL I HAD NO TRAFFIC, AND RETURNED HOME (1 MILES AWAY). THE VEHICLE WAS SIFTING FINE, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON' ON DECEMBER 31, 2016, I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THE VEHICLE STILL HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, BUT NOW WHEN SHIFTING, IT WOULD SHUDDER, WOULD NOT DOWN SHIFT, AND WAS ALSO SHUDDERING IN REVERSE WHEN I WAS PARKING THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP... I'M TOLD ON JAN. 3, 2017, THAT IT NEEDS A CONTROL VALUE, NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL # 14404, AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $2,150. THE CONTROL VALUE IS CONTAMINATED BY DEBRIS FROM THE FAILED 3RD, 5TH, AND REV. CLUTCH PLATE / GEARS. WHY IS THIS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL? I'VE CONTACTED GM (CASE # 8-2633465781) AND THEY CAN'T EXPLAIN WHY.. PLEASE HELP.
