Consumer Description

VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTS HARD THROUGH ALL GEARS. STARTED AS OCCASSIONALLY, BUT PROGRESSIVELY HAS GOTTEN WORSE. UPSHIFTS ARE ENGAGING HARDER AS WELL NOW. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. LOOKING INTO THIS IT APPEARS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM. IS THIS BEING INVESTIGATED? HOW SHOULD I ADDRESS THIS? SEEMS IT COULD BE DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY ON WET PAVEMENT.
