After having my transmission replaced, my throttle sticks and erratically idles. When putting it in neutral and rolling to a stop my car idles up to 3000 RPM.
Had message service air bag come on . System showed passenger air bag off. Took vehicle to gm dealer. Inspection showed a defective passenger presence sensor, compromising both air bags. This would require a 800.00 repair.
Received a recall on faulty ignition switch dated april 2014. Called a dealer to inquire on april 24, 2014. Was told that part would be ordered and we would be notified when available. Called 5/19/14 again to dealer, no part in yet. Called again july 3, 2014. Finally an appointment was set up for wed. July 9th (yesterday). I feel that is way too long to wait for what could be a life or death matter!

When I go to slow down either by coasting or light braking when my car gets to about 20mph it feels like it suddenly brakes or down shifts but if it were not for the seat belt it would send the driver and passengers into the windshield!! It is terrifying!! I am a master mechanic and I verified that it wasn't the brakes grabbing by shifting the car into neutral before it slowed to 20 MPH and when you do that the car will not suddenly jerk stopped. It sets many codes TCM etc. I had the TCM replaced and synced at dealership but the car is still doing it. The code now reads that "communication to the TCM is lost" I was told by gm when speaking to them about the latest recall on the ignition switch that they said it could be related because the ignition switch recall affects the car shutting off, rolling away and the airbag inoperative light. Many other pontiac solstice owners are having the same problem. It is very dangerous and is going to cause accidents if not fixed. Please help.

My car suddenly brakes hard on it's own as I am slowing and gently applying brakes. It starts around 20 MPH. It is very scary and dangerous. To have your car slam on it's brakes on it's own. I have heard that the powertrain/transmission can throw error codes p0700 and p2637 and that can cause the same sudden braking of the car on it's own. Also my coolant temperature gauge(digital) intermittently goes blank showing only three dashes instead of the temp. When it does this my air/heat will not work. My passenger door handle broke off. Also my airbag warning light will not go off. I also have a mysterious coolant leak but it's intermittent as well.
