2006 monte carlo ss - 4t65e-hd transmission failure... Slipping... Shuddering/shaking the whole front end when shifting... Lunges/slams into gear... Had to get transmission replaced! There are over 100 other people I know in online car forums with the same problem with this transmission in their monte carlos, impalas, and gxp's. Starting anywhere from 20,000 miles to 90,000 miles... And some are on their 2nd or 3rd replacement transmission already!!

Transmission. Complained to dealer at 71000 miles said nothing wrong. I requested change of transaxles fluid at that time. Brought back to dealership at 78000 miles dealer stated a "bit" low on fluid. At this time I was hearing a whinnying noise. Presently, at 88000 miles I went to dealer, service mgr. Test drove and said vehicle was shifting into all 4 gears, and to bring to 2 reputable transmission shops and both state I have no 4th gear! Also, well known transmission problems with these gm transmissions. A new transmission at 88000 miles is unacceptable! Of course my warranty ran out 1 month to the day! Gm should be ashamed. This chevy has been an absolute nightmare!

I bought a 2000 monte carlo ss new in sept of 2000, I have 60,000 miles on it. The 4th gear is out of it and I have to have a new transmission put in it which is going to cost me between 1,300.00-1,600.00 to replace and they have to add a add on kit, if they have to add a add on kit what is the problem? I am very disappointed with chevy products. I also have a 89 chevy truck, which I bought used with 50,000 miles and I have had to put a new transmission in it 2 yrs ago, my daughter has a 99 monte carlo and has numerous problems in the last 2 yrs. I owned a 79 chevy truck for 16 yrs which I bought new and never had any problems with it except for normal wear and tear on it. What has happened with the quality of chevrolets? I am very disappointed. I should not be putting in a transmission in a 4 1/2 yr old car. I have taken very good care of the car changing oil,etc when it is due. You pay good money and it doesn't even last till you pay it off.
