Transmission Nightmare

Seeing multiple posts with tranny issues with 2nd-3rd gear shifting. We are having the SAME issues at only 50k miles. Shop replaced the torque converter and it still shutters in low RPMs or bottoms out and then shoots high RPMs when going up hills. Nobody will fix it... Warranty guy couldn't get it to "act up" because there were no hills, and would not reschedule to come drive with me. Dealership mechanic said all of the Acadias have been transmission nightmare's and they've had SEVERAL vehicles getting new tranny's, IF they can get it to act up. Save your money!

Safe, reliable, comfortable, economical, and by far the best vehicle we have owned. Have driven others from rentals or dealers, but need look no further.
