So I was parking my truck earlier in a parking spot - while still in drive and at stop, the truck ****** forward and throttled up slightly. It did it 2 or 3 times. I backed out, drove around a little to see if I could reproduce it and it did not. Very odd - had that happened when I was stopped behind someone I definitely would of hit them with how much the truck moved. My foot was still on the brake when it happened. Any similar experiences?

Had the engine been running for a while or was it just after you started up? The reason I ask is because this has happen to me a few times but only right after I cranked the engine and pulled out of my parking spot at work. One of the times the engine actually died and I had to restart it. It’s hard to reproduce the issue so I can’t really get it looked at with no engine codes thrown.

It was when I just started it. I spoke to some guys on Facebook who had the same issue. Dealer updated their TCM and no further issues. I’m taking mine tomorrow for the update
