It would be helpful to know the mileage on your GP. When was the last time you had the tranny serviced (ATF and screen filter).
The PCM by referencing engine and drive parameters performs the shifting in a 4T65E tranny by controlling shift solenoids. There is a 1-2 upshift and 3-4 upshift. The 3-4 solenoid may be hanging up indicating a valve body related problem. Also, the PCM references to a vehicle speed sensor (VSS) to determine car speed for shifting.
