  • Transmission Troubles - 2004 Oldsmobile Silhouette
    By -

    We picked up our Silhouette, drove it for about a week before we left for Florida where we spend the winter. We made it as far as Gainesville and the check engine light came on, the gas mileage decreased and the performance in traffic decreased dramatically. We were reasonably close to our destination so we continued on. Thank Heaven we didnt stop to have it checked as we took it in to the dealer in Bradenton on our arrival and it took 11 days to get it back. The transmission was out. We were told it took that long because the transmission never goes out. DUH! We have it back but are getting 20 MPG compared to 29 MPG before the transmission quit.

    We had high hopes for our Premiere, having had GM pull us out of our former Chevy Venture lease. It has been a reliability nightmare. The ventilation system does not deliver the same temp of air between the front and back (almost 25 degree diff). GM master techs cannot correct it. The alternator has died four times, and still the vehicle has issues. We also have a 2 inch pile of service invoices for over two dozen nickel and dime repairs. At first, we thought we had the perfect minivan loaded at the right price. Buyer beware - Olds phaseout plays appears to be impacting quality. Bottom line - look elsewhere.
