(reported on)Montana 3.2L V6
- Automatic transmission
- 88,000 miles
Complete transmission failure at 88,000. Very known issue as reported by transmission people. I had this happened 2000 GMC Jimmy and the 2000 Montana; same model transmission. Known part failure that is responsible for keeping pressure constant in transmission. The problem happens in hot weather conditions and faulty part allows the transmission pressure to go down; hence damage. GM knows about poor design; does nothing.

I had the problem 2 times with the transmission, now it slips, had the motor gasket problem. 2 times i had to change the relay for the fan (was only working on high( 4 and 5)). All lights are going high and low in the first 15 minutes. Painting problem too. The lock button is not working on passenger side. There is some water that is getting in the car when it rains. That's enough, that's why American cars company is loosing the market war against others.
