so far, my car has 10k on both of those, and, knock on wood, no shudder. |

Class Action
I did not read this entire thread, but it certainly seems like there are enough complaints here to file a class action suit against GM. They have a known failure mode, and are not solving the issue by any account that I have read. I just got a used 17SS with the shudder that I am taking back to the dealer for that among other issues (they are returning the car - there was also undisclosed damage). But, I am getting a new 18 1SS, and now am a bit worried I am going to be stuck with the same issue in a new car.
Has anyone approached an attorney about this? I will likely not have a car actively having the issue (sounds like it takes a few thousand to show up - damage occurring I'm sure all the way through), so it'll be up to one of you to pick up the mantle. Just show the threads from the various GM sites to any good attorney for class action suits, and they will jump all over it. Since it is across all GM's with the A8, there are going to be plenty of customers for a lawyer to pick up this suit, and they will make a killing. As someone said though, it'll probably kill GM in the process.

Although, the shudder is not happening at this time, it was inferred that a follow-up service item could be the next time they work on the transmission, as it shouldn't be that long before I'm back. This makes 7 service visits for the transmission for the shudder and hard shifting that feels like the back of the car got hit when going 5 miles an hour. Flushing and resetting the transmissions 'smart learning' are bandaids on a piss-poor design. Thanks, Thomas |

A8 Vibration
I just left my 17 SS with the A 8 in for replacement TC. At 28,000 miles, had the fluid changed 8,000 miles ago and came back even worse. They did not hesitate to say needs a new TC, anyone heard if the 2019 GM new update is now active and will be in this fix? Have turned off the V4 mode entirely, during a Dino tune. It does seems to come up whenever I add more performance to the package, now K&N, Dino tune, and Stainless exhaust. Plenty of added power but shaking is a disaster. At least dealer does not blame the add-ons.

Unfortunately, I don't have my Camaro SS as it's back in the shop to have the transmission's auto-learning reset again for the 3rd time. Apparently this is the only way the dealership has been able to temporarily eliminate a very hard 1-2 shift that the A8 keeps on developing. |
