There are solenoids inside automatic transmission which will shift gears. Solenoids are typically for 2 gear shifts. Solenoids have a needle that goes out of a cone shaped tube in it and this needle vibrates and breaks the end of the the tube making shifting rough or not at all. Since the Pontiac Vibe is a Toyota I doubt that this is the issue as they are very tough. You need an OBDii Code reader to indicate what the issue really is before you start changing parts and not getting anywhere. There is an ELM OBDii code reader on Ebay for $10., get the one with the lights and there is a bluetooth type that you can use your phone or tablet.

normally i would say if it ran low on oil and now the engine wont turn over, i would suspect internal engine damage. But, have someone check first to be sure it isnt something easy like a battery connection or starter

Can't tell you where yours is exactly. But two spots that is most likely at. Under the car on the driver side, right behind the front tire mounted to the frame. Or on top of the fuel tank, You can see it, but have to drop the tank to get it out. I have never replaced one though. Fix them always. If the box is crack, I get a piece of plastic and silicone it on, over the crack. If the nipple broke off, I use a piece of copper tube, just a bigger than the hole. Heat it up, hot. Use pliers. Then insert it to the box and push the nipple on it at the same time. Do this quickly. Then smear silicone around the crack. keep the silicone close or you won't be able to get the hose connected back on.
