Had TSB done today - AND GUESS WHAT

On my 05 Limited, I noticed a little downshift problem, so I go to the dealer and they do the TSB EG033-07 service on my car. Well now it is worse than before. Dealership call HQ and was told REPLACE TRANSMISSION AND TORQUE CONVERTER no charge. Has anyone else had this happen! Only have 40K on the car, what gives?

I just performed this TSB on a 05 and it fixed the concern. I tried to do just the computer update and it didn't fix anything, made it much worse( so im thinking they didn't replace the parts, do the manifolds look new.). Had to change the 02 sensors and manifolds. Shifts like butter... But the 05's are junk anyways always have these stupid little problems.
