    Might be far fetched but look and see if you have an AutoTrans Interceptor electronic shift modulator, (shift kit), installed.



    Good Luck

    A word of caution and something to watch for depending on your mileage if the POs did not flush the system and you have now done so it could be an issue.

    Several members have experienced transmission failure after flushing a system that had not previously been flushed.

    Hope all goes well for you on this one.

    Also, make sure that the shop topped off the the trans fluid correctly. Our transmissions have a very specific way that they need to be filled. They need to be brought up to temperature, topped off, shifted through the gears, topped off, etc. If all of that wasn't done then you may be low on fluid which might be causing the hard shifts.
