What owners say
Issue 1 - 8 speed automatic transmision is shifting hard between gears and also has a shutter at low engine RPM between 1200 to 1500 RPM. The shutter will occur in most gears. Especially noticeable when using cruise control. It happens in all roads in all conditions and at various speeds + gear.. Issue 2 - "scrubbing or grinding noise" in the rear end when I first get in the car after it has been sitting for a while. The noise is very noticeable when I make turns at low speed. Then after the vehicle is driving for a few minutes it goes away. It has been more noticeable with low temperatures. The vehicle has approximately 13k miles.
Grinding noise from rear end when making slow right or left hand turns.
Grinding sound out of the rear differential. It has been back to the dealership 4 times for the same issues. Has been replaced once and it still has the same grinding noise.
