Has it been scanned yet ?

Not all DTC’s activate the MIL.

If it’s that bad, there has to be some DTC recorded.

I hate to say it but my thoughts are a transmission issue.

Obscure long shot here, but if the 'shuddering' is basically occurring under acceleration, then it might possibly be a tail-shaft centre bearing issue (deteriorated bearing housing rubber).

Simply enough to check, to eliminate this issue.

The first few minutes offer a good example of the shudder with a rooted centre bearing. Not all speeds.

Yes this is a VE, going to be the same for VZ.
