Kessler Topaz has filed a class action complaint against General Motors LLC (“GM”) related to defective and faulty transmissions in certain (2015-2019) Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC vehicles.
Specifically, Kessler Topaz is litigating claims that a potential defect in GM 8-speed transmission models 8L90 and 8L45 cause, among other things, hesitation, shaking, shuddering, kicking, lurching, jerking, unpredictable acceleration, weak acceleration, rough idle, and bucking, particularly when the vehicle changes gears or engages from a stop (either at a light, or when switching from park to drive, or drive to reverse, etc.). In addition, individuals with these vehicles that brought the car to a GM dealership may have had their transmission fluid or torque converter replaced or may have been told by their dealership that the transmission needs to have its computer reset or needs to “learn” how they drive.
