| Description of the problem | Issue occurs when starting the truck, putting the truck into drive to leave from where the truck was parked. The truck will sometimes shift into 5th gear as soon as you put it into drive. As you move forward it will not shift down into first, it will stay in 5th gear. If you stop the truck, shift into park, shut the truck off, then restart the truck and put it back into drive it will function properly. It will start out in 1st and then shift as needed depending on the speed you are going. When driving the truck above 40 and then coming to an intersection and slowing down to about 20 miles an hour to make a left hand turn the truck will down shift into 1st gear suddenly (should be running in 3rd gear at this point) and the engine will rev up substantially, once the truck has turned the corner and you step on the gas the truck will then shift back up into the proper gear (3rd gear or so). On occasion when you start the truck and try to drive the truck from a parked position it will act erratic by shifting from 1st to 5th (going less than 5 miles an hour at this point), then down to 3rd even though the truck is only going 5-10 miles an hour. Generally stopping the truck, shutting the truck off and restarting the truck will cause it operate properly. This issue has happened on and off over the past 6 months. |
