I hear from someone that you may be able to help! Below is a blog I made to the monte carlo forum site. Please read to get an idea of what my complaints are. I own a 2007 monte carlo ss. I have been to chevy 6 times under warranty for this transmission issue. Each time they told me they did not find any error codes or problems on the test drives. I find this hard to believe. My transmission shifts hard at times like it is missing. This slipping / hard shifting is a safety hazard for getting on to parkways and needing to respond quickly to certain situations. All seems to be happening in first gear. I brought the car back to them about 2 months ago (out of warranty) for an engine burning oil issue which by the way I also brought to their attention 5 times under warranty. Which all of a sudden (you guessed it) they admitted the engine was burning oil and I wound up having to pay $1000.00 to tare down the engine and $250.00 to flush out the transmission (even though they did not find a transmission issue for a 7th time). They told me the cylinders were not scored and were fine so they changed the pistons and rings. Supposedly the said the job cost $3600 +. My a-- how nice of them, (not). Being I paid for the tare down your telling me pistons and rings cost $3600. Bs, still to early to see if the engine is still burning oil. And here's the kicker-(the car only has 50,000 miles on it and I had a 6 year 60,000 mile warranty on it). So now I am still stuck with this transmission issue which they do not have an answer for. Any suggestions on what I should do next. And going back to chevy is not an acceptable answer unless it's in front of a judge. Any further questions please do not hesitate to e-mail me.

2006 chevy monte carlo ss, started to notice the transmission slipping at about 77,000 miles, when stopped and beginning acceleration it hesitates than lunges into gear while making a grinding noise at the same time..checked the transmission fluid and didn't notice any burnt fluid or particles in it....this incident repeated itself for 7 months and today it wouldn't go into drive or any of the low gears...its pretty obvious by all the complaints on various forums that this is a manufactures flaw! Disappointed!!!

Car would not go into reverse. I put it back into park then in reverse and it worked. I drove home feeling hesitation with the transmission. I dropped it off at the dealership. They confirmed it was the trans due to faulty parts. The warranty was for 36,000 miles my car has 50,000. I am looking for them to back there parts for replacement they want to charge 3,000.00 for repair. They then offered to give 1,000.00 towards repair but the whole reason the car broke was due to faulty parts.

Tl*the contact owns a 2004 chevrolet monte carlo. While decelerating from 45 MPH, the brakes failed. The contact lost control of the vehicle and struck a guard rail. There were no injuries. The dealer cleaned the rotors and brakes; however, the vehicle continued to hesitate when attempting to stop. The manufacturer stated that the dealer should diagnose the failure. The current mileage was 31,498 and failure mileage was 9,000. Updated 02-19-08 *bf the consumer stated they did not hit the guard rail, there were limited brakes the vehicle pulled to the right.
