I am unsure about the exact cause. But upon some research I have noticed there is an open recall for same model of Car which involved Torque Converter replacement and ECM software update. I have been noticing the exact same issue when I see shudder and Vehicle seems to stop slow down significantly before accelerating and any time I am resuming after Red Light. Which is extremely safety concerns. I want to file a complaint so we can have Toyota Addess this for us.

car would shutter when shifting. Toyota called this an "extended warranty" issue. I believe it should have been called a "recall". I did not recieve any notification of Toyota's extended warranty notice.

There is a transmission shudder when traveling around 30-40 MPH as well as sporadically when increasing speed. Recently, there is a very hard shift/jolt when transmission is shifting from 2nd to 3rd. The issue is caused by a combination of a faulty torque converter and a software glitch in the engine control module (ECM). This is a safety hazard, and I contacted Toyota North America who told me that they can't do anything. However, to fix the problem that Toyota issued the recall themselves, Toyota dealers need to replace to the torque converter and update the ECM software. I am reaching out to the NHTSA because this is a safety hazard, and I hope you are able to help me.

Shaking and shuddering at around 30-45 mph. This happens in traffic and feels unsafe. This is a know issue for these cars, but mine is not included in the recall - this must be an oversight or mistake.
