What's causing my 2017 Ford Ranger to vibrate?

It does sound, from your description, to be the automatic transmission. Certainly take it back to the dealer; a new vehicle shouldn’t be doing that. If you want another opinion take it to a certified specialist.

The EGR cooler can develop a crack and the resultant loss of coolant could lead to a cracked cylinder head. I would recommend that you press Ford for a goodwill gesture to cover the cost of repairs. At the very least you deserve an explanation for the rejection of your claim. If ultimately Ford doesn’t come to the party with a satisfactory resolution you could go to the consumer affairs people (ACCC) and ask for their help.
