Consumer Description

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, AT A CONSTANT HIGHWAY SPEED, 40 TO 70 MPH,ANY ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION, CAUSES THE CAR TO VIBRATE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE, AT TIMES, DURING THE 'SHUDDER' EVENT, THE CAR WILL LUNGE FORWARD.GM HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS 'SHUDDER' AND HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN. THE FIX THEY RECOMMEND IS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FLUSH AND FILL WITH AN UPGRADED TRANSMISSION FLUID. I AM ASSUMING THE OEM FLUID IS DEFECTIVE. THIS CONDITION IS NOT AN ISOLATED EVENT. IT HAPPENS ALMOST EVER TIME SPEED IS ACCELERATED OR DECELERATED. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 5600 MILES.
