“Car shakes at low speeds, what's told by dealer that it is a torque converter which is not covered for my car. They wanted to charge me thirty nine hundred. I spent $1,000 for parts and got someone else to do it for $2,000. Now having the same problem reported online by many others and still no recall on these vehicles.”
NHTSA complaint #11221982, filed 2019-06, 74,795 miles“The torque converter went bad. The car shuddered when changing gears. Especially at low speeds.the car hesitates when accelerating.
