Traverse

2017 Chevy Traverse is having shifting issues. It appears to be the torque converter or something to do with the transmission. 70K miles & has shifting issues in all gears even after a GM dealership transmission flush. While merging on the freeway I pressed the gas to speed up & the RPM went up high, but the traverse did not speed up...I was able to avoid a very bad accident.

Driving on hwy with cruise control set to 72. I think I went to up cruise control to 75 when car sped up to almost 90mph despite me turning off cruise control and standing on brake. After of couple minutes the car slowed down. But I had no control over my vehicle's braking O the acceleration for at least 2 minutes.

Sometimes when taking off from a start there is a shudder from the transfer case area or the rear end like the gears aren't matching up and are grinding before they fully engage. This also happens sometimes after the car shifts from1st to 2nd and sometimes when you are coming to a stop and the light goes green and you give it some gas to start through the light or you make a turn and give it gas to get up to speed after your turn. The car is all wheel drive. We had it at the dealership for a good month, they replaced rear end and clutch parts on the transfer area and other things. They didn't know what it was they also reprogrammed the transmission because it didn't take all the information it should have. Any problems like this you know off what do we do? this has happened a year ago and is happening now
