Tl* the contact owns a 2012 buick regal. the contact stated that while decelerating from 35 mph, the vehicle violently jerked forward. the vehicle was taken to several different dealers. the first dealer was unable to diagnose the problem while the second stated that the shift adapter needed to be reset. the vehicle was repaired but the failure worsened. the failure mileage was 12,000.
Difficult to shift manual transmission in cold weather, along with gear noise. took vehicle to dealer on jan 16, 2015 and all they did was give us a copy of gm's corporate bulletin 03-07-29-004i: manual transmission operating characteristics (dec 19, 2014). this document told us to shift slowly in cold weather, but then we cannot shift it at all. took vehicle to another dealer on feb 20, 2015. the service manager test drove it and agreed there was a shifting issue. they replaced the transmission, which is much easier to shift. unfortunately, we now have a vibration in 2nd gear. *tr
Vehicle turns off when going in reverse. vehicle also makes weird sputtering noise when started. this has been happening since i bought the car brand new in 2011 but dealers can never replicate the problems! *tr
