Transmission went out when I used the passing gear. Gears began slipping and I could not pass the vehicle. I pulled over and tried to put car in reverse and it would not engage. Was able to drive to next town about three miles in first gear at abot 25 MPH.this occurred on a vacation trip to florida. The car was towed to a pontiac dealer in manning sc santee motor co. Inc. 452 n brook st.zip 29102 phone 800‑948‑6080. I doubt that I have used the passing gear more than a dozen times during the life of the car. It hard to bekeive that the transmission would go that easily after only 62,00 miles. I have kept up with the service on the car faithfully having had my mechanic give my car a thorough check before taking this trip even buying new tires although I still had faurly good tread on them.
1995 Pontiac Bonneville transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 18 of 18, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The problem started about 2 weeks ago, car took off and brakes were as hard as a rock, the only way to control car was to put in neutral. This last time I was on a freeway in southern calif. And the car took off again and I ended off the freeway in a vacant field to stop the car. I was afraid of going into a residental area. The first incident was reported and the car was checked out at a local gm dealership, and nothing was found. The car is there now again and they have found nothing. The car has an extended warranty and they have had it for 3 days.oddly enough when I called aaa to tow me out of the field this last time the dispatcher stated that her mom's buick does the same thing. Gm is making it sound like this is unheard of and they have no idea what is going on, yet on the internet there seems to be other cases.
