Pontiac Grand Prix Power Train Automatic Transmission Safety Report | June 17, 2011
Reported on June 17, 2011
| WE HAVE A 2006 GRAND PRIX GXP. THE SIGHT AND SOUND OF THIS MACHINE IS WONDERFUL. THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES MAKE ME WANT TO DRIVE THIS CAR UP GM'S, WELL U GET THE PICTURE. IT SLAMS INTO FIRST FROM A STOP, SLIPS WHEN ACCELERATING, AND IT HAS LESS THAN 70,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR INTO THE DEALER THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. ONE OVERHAUL AND TWO DIAGNOSTIC CHECKS LATER THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. THE FLUID WAS CHANGED AT 47,000 MILES. I HAVE HEARD IT IS A PRESSURE VALVE PROBLEM BUT THIS FIX WILL BE ON MY DIME, AS IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY NOW. WAY TO GO GM, ANOTHER VICTIM HERE. *TR | |
