VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
THE TRANSMISSION HAS A PROBLEM THAT CAUSES THE TRUCK TO LURCH FORWARD JUST AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE LURCH CAN BE QUITE STRONG CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO JUMP FORWARD IN EXCESS OF A FOOT. THE LURCH OCCURS AT UNPREDICTABLE TIMES AND WITHOUT WARNING. THE BEST DESCRIPTION I CAN OFFER IS THAT IT FEALS AS IF THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN HIT IN THE REAR BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. IT HAS OCCURED AT LEAST 6 TIMES ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS.*AK
