Consumer Description
I HAVE EXPERIENCED AN INTERMITTENT SHUDDER/JERKINESS IN THE PAST MONTH WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT LOW SPEEDS. TODAY, WHILE SLOWING AND TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND I COASTED THE VEHICLE INTO A PARKING SPACE AND STOPPED. I TURNED ON THE IGNITION AND THE CAR STARTED IMMEDIATELY. WHEN I GOT HOME I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR ISSUES AND FOUND THIS THREAD ON THE CADILLAC FORUMS OF OTHERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS: HTTP://WWW.CADILLACFORUMS.COM/FORUMS/CADILLAC-ATS-TECHNICAL-DISCUSSION-FORUM/391273-2013-6-SPEED-MANUAL-STALLING-AFFECTED.HTML I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND SPOKE WITH [XXX] IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. HE SAID THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THE SHUDDER AT LOW SPEEDS AND HAVE A FIX FOR THAT PROBLEM. HE SAID THAT THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY STALLING. I TOLD HIM THAT HE COULD READ ABOUT IT ON THE FORUM ABOVE. HE ASKED ME TO BRING MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE SOME TRANSMISSION PARTS REPLACED. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS MIGHT ONLY RESOLVE THE JERKING, BUT NOT THE STALLING, WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
