A SHIFT "LAG" MAY BE NOTED WHEN ACCELERATING FROM SPEEDS OF 10 TO 20 MPH. A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE HAS BEEN RELEASED WHICH MAY CORRECT THIS CONCERN. SOFTWARE UPDATES ARE COMMONLY MOST EFFECTIVE ON NEWER VEHICLES. HIGHER MILEAGE VEHICLES MAY EXHIBIT A SIMILAR SYMPTOM CAUSED BY A COMPONENT FAILURE. HOWEVER, WHENEVER MAJOR TRANSMISSION REPAIRS ARE PERFORMED THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE SHOULD BE CHECKED AND UPDATED AS NECESSARY.
