My 2008 Pontiac torrent keeps bucking when I accelerate around 45mph. I gave up on the automatic car starter not working, traction control light staying lit, back windshield wiper motor quitting, spark plug issues, but I am concerned on this one.

    I believe around 45 MPH is when the torque converter kicks in, perhaps thats where the issue is.
