1 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem of the 2008 Saturn Outlook

Failure Date: 09/02/2018

I was driving on the freeway when all of a sudden my 2008 Saturn Outlook just lost power. I pushed the gas pedal but nothing happened. As I was pulling over to the side of the road the power came back but the engine was reving very high and the check engine light came on. I managed to get almost home when the gear got stuck in 1st and the truck would not accelerate higher than 20 mph. Luckily I was just about home. Once I arrived at my home I turned of the truck and turned it back on and it was fine. The mechanic could not figure out what it could have been but was guessing it may be a speed sensor in the transmission. Error codes: p0741 & p0700. I have also taken the truck into the chevy dealership for jerking around 30-35mph. The dealership was not able to fix the problem.

2 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem of the 2009 Saturn Outlook

Failure Date: 09/16/2014

September 16,2014 around 8:30 pm we were driving on i10 westbound and accelerated to get in the main lanes. The car made the accelerated noise but was stuck in gear at 4400 rpms at 40 miles per hour. We pulled over in a parking lot to test the acceleration and it was hard to tell driving in a short distance, but as soon as we pulled off and attempted to accelerate again the same issue occurred. The next time the car began to lose power as if it would stop so we pulled into another parking lot and cut the car off. When we turned it back on and drove the issue went away.

Transmission stuck in gear. Would not shift. Service tech found metal filings in transmission and advised to replace with new. ($4700). Researched the problem and found the to be common with this transmission. My opinion that gm should have recalled it or pay for the new transmission.

4 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem of the 2007 Saturn Outlook

Failure Date: 12/03/2013

I own a 2007 Saturn Outlook xe (fwd). After a few days of a bit of an odd hitch in the gears automatically shifting, the transmission went out. After a brief stop and then attempting to accelerate again it was as if the vehicle was stuck in neutral. We had it towed to a nearby mechanic where we were notified that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle has approximately 78,500 miles.
