Since day one of my ownership, I’ve been frustrated driving this thing in traffic. Smooth stops are almost impossible for two reasons: First this thing has the worst brake pedal feel since Model T mechanical brakes. Second, the transmission does weird things as the vehicle comes to a stop. As you’re coasting to a stop, the transmission shifts down through the gears all the way to first, which most cars don’t do. Then, when you’re almost stopped, I think the torque converter unlocks and the vehicle surges forward, which can be problematic if you’re close to the car ahead.
Has anyone else noticed this weirdness, or is my truck just broken?
