I am wondering if anyone else is or has had the same issue I am. Truck's going to the dealer next week for this and another rambox de-lamination issue.

So basically driving, come to a complete stop. Truck seems like its in 2nd or 3rd and shifts down to 1st. In doing so, it seems to lock up the converter and one of two things happen: Truck lurches forward (or tries to based on the amount of brake pressure being applied) or stalls. This has happened to me only a handful of times, with stalling only happening once.

What was the outcome of your visit to the dealer? Any continued lurching ?
 
Not yet. It only did it every now and then but they said there were 3 'drivability and performance' updates that needed done....and they had to replace one of the rambox lids and readhere the other.
