Several owners have registered transmission complaints with the NHTSA regarding the 2015 Buick Encore. In most cases, problems involved sudden hesitation, strong jerking motions while shifting gears, and in some instances, engine revving. In almost all instances where a diagnosis was performed, no specific cause or need for repair could be identified and failures happened often before 50,000 miles. The Encore's transmission malfunctions were also accompanied by a loss of power steering, an illuminated "check engine light" and engine failure. In general, the 2015 Encore has been the subject of over 1,300 TSB's that include several for the automatic tranny, including repairs to the TCM, transfer case and the automatic shifter and gear linkage.

Mine bucks after car is fully warmed up, between 20-35 mph. If I floor it through that zone I can avoid it but very irritating.
