    Gen4 owner considering other SUVs next

    VSC TRAC light's on: Who in Minneapolis can fix w/o bringing to dealer?

Then, when I took it out, as soon as I put in forward gear, it shifted EXTRA hard... Almost clunk like. I then put in reverse... no problem. Back in forward it demonstrated a hard...
