2007 Pontiac Vibe transmission complaints

Filed Oct 12, 2009 · Transmission · 40,800 miles · MI

My 2007 pontiac vibe was acting like it wanted to stall. Also rough starts and no acceleration. I found out through the service light that it was a bad p.c.u. I replaced and now it is fine. Vibe just had 40,000 miles on it I had to pay for it myself. I searched on computer and a lot of people have similar problems. But theirs was covered under warranty. Thank you for looking into this and have a great day.

We've had our 2007 pontiac vibe for 6 months now. It has ~4200 miles on it. It is a family car and is driven by me and my wife (45 & 43). Just this weekend I was driving from rochester ny to manassas va and experienced a problem exactly as described by the one described at: http://www.aboutautomobile.com/complaint/2005/pontiac/vibe +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ complaint number: 10231583 incident date: june 18, 2008 date added to file: june 19, 2008 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ the first "event", I was sitting at a stop light and gradually felt the brake pedal requiring more and more pressure to keep the pedal depressed and the car standing still (cars were in front of me). Fortunately, I only had to endure about 10 seconds of applying significant pressure on the pedal before the light changed and cars began moving. The second incident, I was less fortunate. I was in a long line of cars that were stopped waiting to get by an accident scene. I was waiting approximately 20 minutes, car idling, when all of a sudden, with my normal brake pressure on the brake pedal, realized the car was moving forward. I depressed the brake with my right foot as hard as a could, and this was not enough. I pressed on the brake pedal with both feet then realized I would soon hit the car in front of me and jammed the automatic transmission into neutral---the transmission thudded but I avoided an accident, though probably damaged my transmission some.
