    During the epa mandated exhaust regeneration cycle the vehicle begins to shudder uncontrollably along with power loss. This behavior began at around 5,500 miles and now does it at least every other exhaust regeneration. It happens on multiple lane country roads and city roads at around 50 to 60 miles per hour. It seems more specific to the regeneration cycle than any other driving condition or input. Temperature is…
