| Description of the problem | The automatic transmission has developed a condition that causes the transmission to shift very roughly at low speeds. This shifting causes the vehicle to jerk and stutter when down shifting or shifting from 1st or 2nd gear. I have had a transmission service, replacement transmission, replacement radiator all installed to no avail. The condition is at best a nuisance, and at its worst a safety concern. This rough shifting occurs in the lower gears, and at lower speeds. |
