Consumer Description

My 2014 Ford Taurus SEL transmission when driving and when the shifting begins, the car shudders in 3rd and 4th gear, when it passes the 4 gears, then the vehicle runs smooth. I would like to report this because this is not normal for a transmission to do this. I do not believe it is a Torque converter. Ford Dealership said it was a Torque Converter. I took it to Aamco Transmission and had it looked at and the person that worked on it, he did not believe it was a Torque Converter. I had Aamco to check this and all they did was changed my Transmission Fluid. The problem came back. I believe this is a defect in the Transmission. I did some research and come to believe it is the body valves inside the Transmission causing this problem. I am sure this could be a safety hazard to me while driving. I believe the Transmission could lock up and cause a crash. I will upload the work order. This has been going on since March 2023 and I have no solution to this problem. I wanted to see if you can help with this problem and get it recalled.
