problem #1

2007Mar 06

(reported on)

Malibu 3.1 V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 81,000 miles

The transmission was shifting hard after getting off freeway.
Parked it and called the dealer, i have extended warranty, i will have to get it towed in. Started to research and found this site, hasn't turned into a horror story yet. I will find out tomorrow, If GM knows about these problems why didn't they let owners know so they can be fixed before the car breaks down . But i already know the answer to that MONEY!!. This will be the last GM I Own !! I will keep you posted on this.
