I purchased a 2012 in the beginning of the year. I've noticed a shuddering between 5 to 20 mph, presumably in first gear.

This is a cpo car so it's under warranty. Just curious if this is normal or if I should take it to the dealer.

Is it a 6 speed or an auto?

Too many possibilities. Failing trans solenoid, torque converter, map sensor, maf sensor, vacuum leak, failed O2 sensor just the name a few. Let me know what you find out..

Shuddering is definitely not normal. Take it to the dealer.

Check your right and left motor mounts first. My car was all wierd with knocking, shuddering and whining/whirring and it all came down to block/body contact.
