Also when placing the car in reverse from park or from reverse into drive it would lunge forward. When at a complete stop and slowly removing your foot from the brake it would lunge forward as well. We have taken it into the dealership for these issues a minimum of six times with the following outcomes: 1) cannot duplicate issue 2) then duplicated it was a software issue and they updated the software 3) this is just how the transmission shifts - this is normal.
