A judge has granted class action status to a lawsuit brought by 39 plaintiffs across 26 states covering issues with General Motors' 8-speed automatic transmissions.

The lawsuit specifically applies to vehicles that are equipped with8L90 or 8L45 8-speed automatic transmissions made between 2015 and March 1, 2019.

The lawsuit alleges that the erratic transmission behavior makes some vehicles unsafe to drive.
