Hello, I purchased a 2001 pontiac gran prix gt in june of 2004, I paid cash for the car and have been having problems with the transmission since the first week I bought it. I feel I have been getting the run around on getting it fixed properly. I have had to fight my wat through the dealer (laura buick pontiac gmc) in collinsville, il. In getting this fixed. They did finally replace the transmission in december of 2004. At this time then the car was hit on their lot and had to get that fixed and had to argue with them over that repair. They did repair it weeks later. I took the car back to laura buick of collinsville to have the transmission looked at again due to it was having the same problems at this time they stated to me that they drove the car and found nothing wrong with the transmission itself,but did here some wining making aleft turn and that it was the power steering rack needed to be repaired and the cost of that would be $862.00, at this time I don,t have the money to get the car fixed so I went to pick up my car and they told me I had to pay $65.00 to have my car released to me. I don,t feel I owe this money because I was told that he test drove the car so before anything extra was performed I should have been notified of any additional fees. I have not been satified with this purchase since I bought the car and I can go into deeper detail if needed. All I,m asking for is to have the satifaction of my car being repaired-- they got what they wanted and that was the satifaction of selling the car to someone like me. Please help!

My 2001 pontiac grand prix gtp has had a grinding noise since 8/31/04. On 9/1/04 it would not go into reverse last night. I took to the dealer and they found the transmission shut. Theyre quoting approximately $2,700 to put in a new transmission. I cannot believe that this would happen to a 3-year old car with 45,000 miles on it!

I'm not sure on all dates of car problem's. Carfax has all that information. It's been in the shop 6 times,now my service engine light has come on again. This will be the 7th time within 1 year. One thing was fixed 3 time's in same month,I beleave.the dealer ship in tx, said the dealer ship in il never fixed it the first 2 times.
Automatic transmission failure: in overdrive at about 55mph, sudden bang. Car started bucking with more noises. Pulled over. Overdrive no longer working, as well as failure with 1st, 2nd, and reverse. Nursed it home in 3rd. Car almost impossible to push even in neutral. Had it towed to dealer. Probable transmission replacement upcoming. Only 31,000 miles on car.
When accelerating quickly, the first shift of the automatic transmission grinds.
While driving at an incline road tracking system on front tires tend to spin and veer to t left, losing control.
