At low rpms the truck will lunge forward /reverse depending which gear you are in . This happens when it wants it is not a constant . It idles high and surges. First occurrence happened in feb dealer did nothing . Next occurrence it almost hit my daughters friend when she passed in front of me. Again dealer did nothing and finally the last occurrence it lunged into a tree. Again dealer and GM found nothing.
