Deceleration Control

When the vehicle goes around a corner and needs to decelerate first and then accelerate, the PCM goes into the deceleration control mode to reduce the number of times the transmission shifts. When the vehicle is decelerating from speeds above 27 mph (43 km/h), the PCM anticipates upcoming acceleration, and shifts the transmission from 4th to 3rd earlier than normal.
