Hello!
When engine is cold (15 min after running) when we put into reverse the transmission does not engage for a few seconds. In that time my family is pushing down on the accelerator then the car lunges backwards when reverse starts working after the delay . My wife is worried we will run over the kids or dog.
I see others having a similar problem.
See below for my dealer. I am at a loss. Any coaching please.
2018 with 4K miles.
Thanks in advance!
"As I stated on our phone call that I have experience the 2 second delay in the transmission on all of our vehicles, especially when cold. I spoke to XXXX who also confirmed that you did say that you experienced this issue when the vehicle was cold. As also stated on our phone call, I did say that when transmission fluid is cold it will create a delay due to the fluid being thicker and taking more time to engage the transmission. As also stated on the phone call, I believe the vehicle is safe to drive."
