Transmission Gear Slipping problems of the 2007 Saturn Outlook

Same kind of story as that of many others. On the road, the Outlook's transmission began to slip and engine rev went high before the next shift. One difference is that in our case, we were driving home from a hospital, hours after my wife's sister died there that day. We did not need that. For the record, the dealer quoted $3750 to fix or offered $3000 in trade toward another car. Haven't decided yet. We have other things on our mind. The funeral is Wednesday.

Took a trip out of town this weekend and started noticing the transmission slipping when switching gears which activated the check engine light. Thankfully made it home before it got worse. Next day drove it around the block and was slipping all over the place. Pulled over to my house and parked. Turned off,turned back on. Tried to go in reverse and was unable as if in neutral. Still can go forward but major slippage. Doing research this is a very common issues with these vehicles. This page alone has 100+ and 10+ in the last month. Gm and NHTSA need to realize this issue and get that recall going!.

Thought this was a good deal just purchased on 11/4/13. With a 100,000 mile warranty. Yeah right have had nothing but trouble since I drove it. And they told me they fixed all the problems. Today is the 13th they told me to take it out of town on my planned trip and see how it does. The farther we drove the worse the transmission kept slipping. So on the 12th I took it back in and the service dept. Told me they are limited on what they can fix on a used car even under warranty. And my airbag service light came on and they couldn't fix that told me I would have to take it to another dealership and they could fix that out of my pocket cost. Something needs to be done with these vehicles before somebody gets seriously hurt! somebody please help me what can I do. .

The transmission was replaced by gm at 80,000 miles with a new gm transmission. I know have 156000 miles on the car and the transmission is slipping again in 3rd gear. The tech is telling me that there is a plate in there that usually breaks on theses cars, to rebuild it is 2600, or a new transmission is 3500. The car has less than 80,000 miles on the new transmission and the same thing is happening again.

Transmission problems and slipped going into 3rd gear and revved, would not shift up to 4th gear and we were in the middle of a busy highway. Had to pull into a parking lot and check things out. Parked and checked it out. Once we were done tried to back out and no reverse also. Took it to get the error codes read and found p0776 (3-5-r wave plate).

Vehicle's transmission suddenly lost traction. Driving my child to school and suddenly the vehicle's transmission slipped and would not run. Was caught in the middle of an intersection with 5 year old and baby on board. Thankfully oncoming traffic saw us and slowed down to go around us.

Vehicle's transmission started slipping a day before the incident. My wife was driving my 4 year old son home from daycare when the transmission stopped working. The vehicle would not move forward or backwards. About 28000 miles later the transmission has started slipping again. We no longer feel safe driving this vehicle.

The contact owns a 2007 Saturn Outlook. While turning the vehicle, the contact heard a loud popping sound in the steering column. She also experienced gear slippage. On one occasion, while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. She took the vehicle to the dealer and they replaced the transmission and steering column. Several weeks after the repair, the failure resurfaced. She took the vehicle back to the dealer and they replaced the coolant lines. Immediately after the repair, the transmission failed again. The vehicle is in the process of being repaired. The manufacturer would not assist. The failure mileage was 1,600 and current mileage was 50,000.
