Re: 2002 Dodge Stratus 2.4L AOD hard downshifting while slowing for stop.

Had a scantool hooked up while driving and there were no codes triggered, speed sensors seemed to be OK and the TPS voltage had no interrruptions or spikes. It's got me scratching my head for answers, as this is the first Chrysler product I have worked on or owned in over 10 years (can you tell I love em?). My wife loves the car, now I get the headaches. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I have the same issue and nothing I have done works. I wish the car would spontaneously combust in the parking lot one day. I hate this car but I'm in the same boat as you, my wife loves it.
