The transmission is a 4 speed computer controlled model. If your transmission starts shifting erratic or not at all, then make sure you or a shop run a scanner on the vehicle. You want to see if you have a sensor that has gone bad, causing your problems. The vehicle speed and transmission range sensors like to go bad on vehicles with these transmissions in them.
