When cold, the transmission has a hard slip when shifting between 1st and 2nd gear. Usually happens in the morning when i am leaving my house. On icy/snow covered road it will cause the rear wheels to lose traction. Thus creating a safety hazard for me, other vehicles or pedestrians on the roadway.

The 8 speed transmission sometimes gets hung in between gears or shifts very hard after it intermittently comes out of gear. This week, i went to cross a road on dry road conditions and the vehicle came out of gear, the engine revved and i was without a gear for 2-3 seconds, causing the oncoming traffic to be uncomfortably close by the time i regained power and was able to cross the road. There have been other times…

Automatic transmission and brake pressure problems. The automation transmission jerks when accelerating from zero miles per hour or at low speeds. It can dramatically increase the rate of an incident due to the powerful movement that the movement does to the whole truck. You can then feel the whole truck sway back and fourth due to the impact. This "jerking" from the start can increase the risk of hitting anything…
