4 days after test driving and purchasing the car, I started to notice a shudder when the car was under light to medium acceleration around 35-60mph. Thought maybe it was a misfire or driveshaft problem, but upon investigating both of those avenues, neither seemed to be the case. Read online most likely problem is a failing torque converter. Took it to the transmission shop in town for them to look at it, and they said my transmission fluid was full of metal shavings and that more than likely the whole transmission would have to be replaced, with an estimated cost of over $4k. I'm trading this thing in at the end of the week, and will be letting the dealership know that it was very "convenient" to have a car start failing right after purchasing it, with the dealer saying there were zero problems with the vehicle.
