Beginning in 2018, perhaps earlier, I noticed that often when I would press the accelerator all the way, the engine would (and still does) make a sound (I’ve since learned, through many dealership interactions and internet searches, that the sound is referred as pinging or knocking from pre-detonation), and it SEEMED that the car’s computer would (and still does) electronically back off the throttle, and the RPM’s reduced in terms of speed of acceleration (sometimes the RPM’s even DECREASED as opposed to merely increasing less rapidly).

I bought a 2015 chevy colorado at the beginning of the year - since then I would on occasion notice a "shudder" or sluggish acceleration followed by sudden burst of rpms/acceleration. At about the 3 month mark (around 4500 miles) my transmission failed and was replaced. About a 3/4 of a month later I got my truck back and continued to notice the same shudder and erratic behavior.
