Default "Violent" downshift from 6th gear. 13' Eco

Several times I've experienced an extremely hard down shift from 6th gear when going 70-80 mph and then going WOT.

The shift makes a loud bang in the drive train and causes vehicle to jerk violently. Just one loud pop like slamming it into gear

Anyone else? I doubt I'll be able to reproduce on demand for dealership. On the road now and searching web on phone isn't much fun

Your under warranty, if they'll let you, take a ride with the tech behind the wheel, instruct him/her of what you did when it happens.

Send me a PM with your information, TX_Husker; I'll get this into the hands of your regional customer service manager so they can help. In your message, be sure to include your full name, best daytime phone number, mileage, VIN, and preferred servicing dealership.
