Was stoped at a stop sign. When I tried to accelerate the car acted like it didn’t want to go and the back wheels locked up causing a screeching noise. Before coming to the stop sign it felt like it was having a shuddering affect. Luckily there was no traffic and it finally shifted out but wouldn’t accelerate very well. I was able to make it home and the Check engine is now on. It was definitely scary experience and now I’m kinda afraid to drive it. This car is low mileage (less than 50k) and a daily driver.
The transmission shutters at several speed intervals causing jerking of the vehicle on the roadways.
The contact owns a 2019 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle hesitated, and shuddered upon depressing the accelerator pedal. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle failed to respond upon depressing the accelerator pedal on some occasions. The check engine warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the contact noticed an abnormal oil odor inside the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the torque converter, the engine temperature gauge, and the cylinder head were replaced; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the torque converter and the engine temperature gauge needed to be replaced. The dealer also informed the contact that the cylinder head might need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 61,000.
Mileage: 61,000
Bulletin No.: 19-NA-018 Shake and/or Shudder During Light Throttle Acceleration Between 40 and 128 KM/H (25 and 80 MPH) at a Steady State. Safety Issues: slipping clutch, worn-out gears, or low transmission fluid, problems with the torque converter or other transmission components. After several visits to the dealer, the problem was diagnosed by a service bulletin in 2023. The vehicle was inspected by a Chevrolet dealer. I received no warnings prior to the failure of the issue. This problem appeared at 30k miles but became severe at 43k miles.
While cruising (not accelerating) or accelerating very slowly, the transmission goes into a shutter. I do believe this would be caused by the torque converter. Could be faulty. Seems to be a very common trend.
2019 Chevy Camaro transmission is shuddering. In other words it feels like my car is running over rubber strips on the road between 40 mph to 80mph. I know there is several TSBs that GM has put out on this issue with the A8. Went to Lynn Smith Chevrolet on 07/06/2023 and was told since my car is out of warranty it would cost me 625 dollars to have the transmission flushed and have the new synthetic transmission fluid in it. They said that’s the first step GM wants service depts to do. I’m sorry but if GM knows this is a problem then there should be a recall on it. I know there are already class action lawsuits on this problem. I can’t afford to have my transmission drained 2 or three 3 times. It is causing safety risk when you accelerate and lose power on the interstate or it is sluddering as you pick up speed at a red light.Thought the problem was my tires so had 2 new sets put on and realized it wasn’t the tires.
Transmission shudders going 25 to 80 MPH
While accelerating my Camaro begins to shake violently kind of like a shuttering. It happens on cruise control also. The violent shaking makes it hard to keep control of the vehicle. I looked online and found THOUSANDS of owners with the same problems. The weirdest thing is that my check engine light comes on for a few days then goes off for months. This absolutely needs to be recalled! I’m going in for my second opinion tomorrow but the last mechanic said I can replace the torque converter or that I might have a misfire in my engine. People need to be compensated for these expensive repairs, especially sense the car is so expensive. Gm had to know these parts were faulty. In no way shape or form, is there this many complaints about a vehicles parts and as a company they knew nothing about it. These mishaps are extremely dangerous and could be life threatening.
THE CAR SOMETIMES WILL NOT START. KEY FOBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED NEW FROM CHEVROLET DEALER ALSO NEW BATTERY AND MULTIPLE CHEVROLET DEALERS CAN NOT FIND A PROBLEM BUT MANY TIMES THE CAR WILL NOT START.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS AN ISSUE WHERE IT IS DIFFICULT TO SHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR AND SOMETIMES WHEN SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR, IT KICKS ME OUT AND PLACES ME IN NEUTRAL. THE HOUSING ON THE TRANSMISSION AND THE TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE AND THE CHEVROLET DEALERS DO IT WANT TO HELP ME!

TODAY IN THE MORNING, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY TO WORK AND AS I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 45 MPH, I HEARD A CLUNK SOUND UNDER THE CAR AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I SLOWED DOWN AND STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND THEN I BEGIN TO DRIVE AGAIN AND I NOTICED THAT MY CAR WAS DRIVING AT A HIGH RPM AND IT SEEMED LIKE WAS STUCK AT A SHIFT AND IT DIDN'T WANT TO CHANGE GEARS SO I SLOWED DOWN PULLED INTO AN ENTRANCE AND TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND I DIDNT SEE ANYTHING WRONG; NO LEAKS OR NOTHING. I TURNED IT BACK ON AND DROVE IT TO AUTO PARTS TO SEE HAVE THEM RUN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TEST AND 3 CODES CAME UP WHICH WAS P0964, P0966, AND P0700. AFTER THAT I TOOK IT BACK HOME AT A SLOW SPEED AND LEFT IT THERE UNTIL I GOT BACK HOME FROM WORK. I STARTED MY CAR UP AND DIDNT SEE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON ANYMORE. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT SERVICED AND CHECKED.
Mileage: 405
