2007 Pontiac Vibe Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“My 2007 Pontiac VIBE was acting like it wanted to stall. Also rough starts and no acceleration. I found out through the service light that it was a bad p.c.u. I replaced and now it is fine. Vibe just had 40,000 miles on it I had to pay for it myself. I searched on computer and a lot of people have similar problems. But theirs was covered under warranty. Thank you for looking into this and have a great day.”

“I own an '07 Pontiac VIBE. On march of 2011 the car stalled pulling into a turning lane. Took a minute then started back up and drove about 5 miles. Later that day, the car stalled coming to a stop with all lights still on. Would not start at all that night and had to leave it stranded on the side of the highway. Next day, the vehicle started then made it about three miles to the nearest mechanic shop. They informed us that we would need to get the vehicle taken to a official GM dealer. That our PCM was the problem. …”

“2007 Pontiac VIBE has continuously produced a check engine light with code p0741-torque converter clutch. The vehicle acceleration is sluggish at times. This check engine light has come on at least 5 times, at which time I sent the vehicle to a GM dealer for repair. The vehicle was repaired twice under warranty and is in the shop a second time out of warranty for the same check engine light. Recently the GM dealer has been keeping the vehicle for at least one work week and has never produced any document showing any work was completed on the vehicle. Whenever I complete a longer trip I.e. …”

“I drive a 2007 Pontiac VIBE. About two weeks ago the car stalled out on me at an intersection. The car was running perfectly fine up into in came to the red light. When the arrow turned green my car would not accelerate. It wouldn't even rev . There was no check engine light on but since I could not get my car to move forward (it would work in reverse though the transmission sounded horrible), I had to be towed. Once the tow truck dropped me off, somehow now the car worked!?! I drove it to a different repair shop (closer to my work). They changed/flushed the transmission fluid as a precaution. …”

“This vehicle was driving down the road at highway speed and failed to respond to throttle. There was lots of traffic and this nearly caused an accident. The part that failed is the ECM/PCM and gave a code: p0604 and p0607. This part has recalls which apply to it, however, our manufacturer says the vehicle is not covered by this recall. If there is a recall on some of the vehicles how can the others be perfectly fine? The year coverage is from before and after this model year and yet only certain cars of this time frame are covered? Stay away from these vehicles. …”
