I have a similar issue but instead of lagging the tranny sometimes klunks into 2nd gear. Usually when I let off the gas just before it shifts. It doesn’t do it when I am powering through the gears.

Mine does the same thing and will clunk when driving as well. When I go to accelerate and the driven line is not currently in under load.

I can start the truck, put in gear, then let it creep to 2nd and it will bang every time.

The dealer reflashed everything to no avail. Setting an appointment again after the new year to let them try again.

Mine has done the bang into drive thing once. I have only 500 miles on it and plan on taking it in anyway. I also have an Apple CarPlay issue that needs resolved.

I had the apple CarPlay issue and the dealer had to update something in the software to resolve it. Was a fairly simple issue to fix but the update took a couple hours

Mine would occasionally have a quick jerk after coming to a stop, act like I shifted it to neutral and then back into gear when trying to accelerate. I turned the truck in to have it checked, was told nothing is wrong, and it is the programming on the transmission. Not sure if its a stall speed thing or what, but still does it once and a while. We'll what happens over time.
