Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When coming to a stop or even when stopped, a loud thud is heard and felt as if torque converter is still down shifting. when brakes released, thud is heard and felt again as car accelerates. dealer says brakes are fine! i'm concerned as this is not a normal sound and recently car actually felt like it wanted to move forward as thud was felt and heard. (this is unrelated to the car wanted to lurch forward at stop when a/c is on!)*jb
