Acadia

  • 5,000 miles
On 2017 Acadia with it's 6txx transmission, the shifts from 2-3 feel weird (especially) when driving at slow speeds. You get a feeling as if tranny takes more than usual time to engage into 3rd gear, when already disengaged from 2nd gear. This is similar to what feeling one might get if you moved from 2nd - neutral - 3rd gear. I started experiencing this issue from approx. 5K miles. This would be risky when you are trying to merge into a yield or change lanes and this shift occurs, you momentarily feel loss of control. A quick google search on this issue and you will see folks already complaining about this on forums.
