Description of the problem | While driving primarily at lower speeds when braking and then apply acceleration the transmission suddenly hard shifts. A number of times in intersections it is as though the transmission is between gears and the car is not moving at a speed with the amount of acceleration being applied. The transmission then will bang or jerk into gear with quite a bit of force. These events seem to occur more frequently during lower speed driving while slowing before a traffic light and then the light changes and you apply acceleration or when rolling and then applying acceleration. We have had the vehicle to the dealer a number of times and they always advise they can not recreate the problem. This issue has been present since we purchased the vehicle in december 2016. |
