1 Transmission Solenoid problem

Failure Date: 06/09/2005

I to had to have pressure control solenoid in 2000 Monte Carlo replaced after only 44000 miles.

2 Transmission Solenoid problem

Failure Date: 09/08/2004

I have experienced the problem described in TSB no. 020730048 - pressure control solenoid replacement for 4t65-e, 4t40-e, and 4t45-e transaxle/transmission (NHTSA item number: 10006166) a little over 2 years ago. I paid to have the solenoid replaced. The replacement is now beginning to fail again. Since this is a continuing problem for general motors I feel that a re-design solenoid should be manufactured and installed on these vehicles at no additional cost to the owners.
