problem #2

Feb 132016

LaCrosse Super 5.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 103,000 miles

My transmission just out of the blue stopped working. My son was driving when the car would not go into any gears. Yes, the car has 103,000 miles on it, but I had no type of warning at all. The shop that had my car states, " when it's cooled down, the car drives regularly but when the transmission fluid warms up, the pressure in transmission drops and will not allow vehicle to shift into gear." Apparently I have to get the whole transmission replace which is going to run me anywhere from $3,000 - $5,200. Who has that kind of money to spend! I need some suggestions please.

problem #1

Nov 112015

LaCrosse CX 3.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 79,850 miles

drive gears failed housing broke

there was no warning. the transmission just all of a sudden stop going into any drive gear. Had the transmission serviced at Thompson Cadillac Buick GMC. at 7,500 miles flushed. I did notice the conveter sticking at tiomes but nothing the indicated a serious problem. the buick has cost me over 5,000 dollars out of pocket repairs. I will never buy another GM car....
