Had a weird transmission slip/surge yesterday. 2014 GT. 75K miles. No service on "sealed" transmission.
Backed out of my driveway. Slight incline heading uphill on the road in the direction I travel. I came to a stop after backing out, put her in D with my foot on the brake, and pressed the gas like every time before. Engine revved, then the transmission engaged and lunged the car forward aggressively enough to cause the seatbelt to lock. Then it shifted fine. It continued to shift well on that trip and several more since then including the exact same back up out of my driveway a few more times.
I've only had this vehicle for about 800 miles. Bought it CPO about a month and a half ago. Anyone experience this before? Could it be a one off? I was planning on getting spark plugs replaced at Mazda Dealer soon so should I ask them to look for a code or test drive it?
Thanks for chiming in with any experience, thoughts or questions.
