Transmission overdrive shaft spline is stripped preventing the overdrive from being used. I bought this car from a neighbor just now, but this transmission problem occurred at least 2 years ago with approximately 110,000 miles on it. I just had the exact transmission issue confirmed now.

The intermediate drive shaft needs to be replaced. It stated making noises when the steering wheel was turned. Took for service the part was ordered on Nov 3 2004. Part still has not came in. Called the chevy dealer. Seems like its been a common problem. And takes about 2 months to get the part. I was told only 6,000 are made a week and they started in the hole 100,000 and the problem is getting worse. If that many people are having the same problem, why are they not recalling the part. I asked the man if my car is safe to drive he said isn't is under warranty. I said no and all of a sudden the car was safe to drive. It does not feel safe and I am not at all confident about driving and I think chevy should admit they have a problem.
