2004 GMC Envoy power train problems

“THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP, NOTICED IT STARTING TO HAVE ISSUES GETTING UP TO PROPER SPEED WITHOUT SLIPPING AND TRYING TO STALL, AND WAS TOLD BY PREVIOUS OWNER WHOM I'M PURCHASING IT FROM THAT THERE IS A POSSIBLE ISSUE WITH THE TRANSFER CASE AS WELL, AS IT ENGAGES IT'S 4 WHEEL DRIVE WITHOUT ME TOUCHING IT, TRIED TO SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION AND PUT FRESH FLUID AND A NEW FILTER IN TO SEE IF IT WOULD HELP AND NOW IT CAN ONLY GO AS FAST AS 40 TO 55 BEFORE IT STARTS TO SLIP PRETTY BAD. I HAVE A BABY ON THE WAY DUE IN THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS AND WITH IT SLIPPING AND DROPPING SPEED IT CAN CAUSE ME TO END UP GETTING HIT AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT MINE, MY CHILD, OR ANY OF MY OTHER PASSENGERS IN DANGER.”
