redman14,
Thank you for taking the time to post your question. Unfortunately I do not have technical information. If you are unsure of your dealers’ diagnosis I would recommend getting a second opinion from a different GM dealer. Please keep us updated on your concerns. Please feel free to email me directly.

Good luck with your vibe transmission. Unfortunately, you will need to do all of it on your own. GM will initially act concerned but will ultimately offer no support or financial compensation. We spent $3000 fixing our transmission after the PCM failed. The PCM was a known defect and caused a lot of damage. GM was too big too fail so taxpayers bailed them out. I, apparently am too small.

I am having the same issue with my car...
I had the PCM Recall part changed on August 1, 2012 & my check engine light came on after about 1,500 miles, had the code read it said TCC solenoid ...
This seems like a common issue... not sure what to do now...

Hi I have a 2003 vibe and the manual transmission shudders in 1 st gear. My gm dealer can't find that the manual granny's have a pressure switch, and no recall. Anyone have an idea on what to do?

What a waste of time the 800 Pontiac number was. In india Had never had a call about a Pontiac transmission with my problem before. Called the same dealer I just left to ask them the same questions I just asked them. No wonder people are buying foreign cars.

What a waste of time the 800 Pontiac number was. Russel In india Had never had a call about a Pontiac transmission with my first gear shuddering problem before. Called the same dealer I just left to ask them the same questions I just asked them. Anyone know of how to reach a specialist not just a call center ? No wonder people are buying real foreign cars.

nessasue,
If you would like for us to check to see if there are any open recalls on your 2005 Vibe, please email us the last 8 digits of your VIN at socialmediagm.com.
 
As your engine light is coming on, it may be a good idea to get your 2009 Vibe in to be checked out. Let us know if we can be of any assistance to you in that process.
