2007 pontiac vibe has continuously produced a check engine light with code p0741-torque converter clutch. The vehicle acceleration is sluggish at times. This check engine light has come on at least 5 times, at which time I sent the vehicle to a gm dealer for repair. The vehicle was repaired twice under warranty and is in the shop a second time out of warranty for the same check engine light. Recently the gm dealer has been keeping the vehicle for at least one work week and has never produced any document showing any work was completed on the vehicle. Whenever I complete a longer trip I.e. 60+ miles the cel will come back on. I am not getting a straight answer on what is wrong with my vehicle. I have been assured that all parts and labor related to this error code will be taken care of free of charge because the preliminary incidents happened under warranty. I fear the check engine light will continue to come on, forcing me to lose a vehicle for a week in what seems like once a month. My car had a 5 year 80,000 mile warranty. The first cel came on at or around 75,000 miles.
I was driving my 2007 pontiac vibe. I had just started to accelerate when the car stalled. It would restart and then die. I had the car towed to the dealer from whom I purchased the car. They diagnosed the problem as an internal short in the ECM. The ECM was replaced and I have had no problems since. I was not given the old part.
I was following a bicyclist going about 20mph when my engine cut off and wouldn't restart. It was fortunate that I was able to coast into a driveway because I had just rounded a curve and any following vehicle would likely have run into me. The problem was computer failure and has been corrected.
Driving to work one morning my car engine died, as I rolled to a stop by the curb I tried to restart the engine (no good). Now that my car is in the shop, I am told the throttle body has gone out and this is in combination of the computer needing to be replaced also. I have just over 39,000 miles and warranty out @ 36,000. Miles.
