Nope. Got mine fixed.
Check the line from your transmission to I guess your radiator or oil cooler? That's what the shop told me. Had to get my radiator repaired and that line replaced. I was a gallon low on tranny fluid. Shifts like a dream now.

My wife has been driving my car for about a year and we just bought her a new one. I'm noticing this problem now and I have 60,000 and I'm still under warranty.

Does anyone know of a fix for this? I'm going to try disconnecting the battery overnight to see if it fixes it.

Along with the sloppy/slow 1-2 upshift, the car also surges during a 2-1 downshift. This especially occurs when I'm pulling into my garage with some light braking. I swear I'm worried the car is going to go into the wall!

Anyone else seeing the flare or surge when it shifts down to 1st?

Does anyone have a solution to this problem? I took my car into the shop and they checked the computer and can't find anything wrong with it.

Has a flush and filter change solved this problem for anyone?

Thats sucks. I hate that i bought a grand am. I put all this money into intakes and exhausts and paint and the car is a piece of crap. I should have stayed import.

Well, the dealer checked the computer and put it on a machine to check the shift points and found absolutely nothing wrong. But, I can still feel and hear that it isn't shifting properly.

Does anyone know if this will expand into a bigger problem in the future resulting in a transmission rebuild or will it always just be an annoyance?

I can deal with it if it doesn't get any worse or cause a transmission failure. If not, I want to get it fixed under warranty.

Any ideas?

maybe take your car to a real transmission shop for an inspection and estimate, then throw it in the dealer's face
