Vehicle shudders and seems to fail to downshift when driving up hills with a slight grade. Happens around 1500-1750 rpm. Mazda replicated the issue, yet failed to find a solution. Still dealing with them on it. No sense of real concern. The Mazda 6 has been the biggest crap car I have purchased in years. In just over a year of ownership I have had a full transmission replacement, failed TPMS (three times), and now this transmission issue. Very disappointing for a car with great reviews and a lot of promise. I will not continue to be a Mazda customer.
