Pontiac Grand Prix Power Train Automatic Transmission Safety Report | Apr 03, 2010
Reported on Apr 03, 2010
| I WAS JUST INFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP ON APRIL 3 2010 THAT MY TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED IN MY 2006 GRAND PRIX, WHICH I PURCHASED NEW. THIS IS A VERY DISTURBING DISCOVERY BEING THAT MY CAR WAS BRAND NEW AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE AND NOW NEEDS AN ENTIRELY NEW TRANSMISSION. THE INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED WHICH PROMPTED ME TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP HAPPENED APPX 2 WEEKS AGO WHEN I TRIED TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. LUCKILY, I WAS ON A SIDE STREET AND NOT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS INCIDENTS. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND I HAVE RECEIVED NO NOTIFICATIONS THROUGH ONSTAR THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY TRANSMISSION. SO, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND WONDERED WHERE I CAN SEEK ASSISTANCE. *TR | |
