Since you don't mention anything you may have checked on your own, or how many miles are on the vehicle, I'd say start with the basics. Check fluid level, perhaps have the transmission serviced. Fluid and filter change. Go from there.

Default Summary

sorry, I should've disclosed what's been done. I had the transmission flushed and filter replaced. The fluid is a little on the full side since I put a bottle of tranny shudder repair in there too. Thank you

Hi Quigonsean,

Sorry to hear about this! If you decide to visit your local dealership I'd be happy to follow up with them for you if needed. Just PM our page with your VIN and let me know.
