Noticeable downshift

Don't know about an F150 but I experienced this on my wife's Taurus once and really got tired of the hard down shifts when coming to a traffic light. The Ford dealer said it was normal (they are trained to say this while it is under warranty) but it did not do it when the car was new. The upshifts were very smooth, just noticeable hard down shifts. Just after it went out of warranty the hole transmission failed with one big hard downshift. Long story short............after a few phone calls to Ford in Detroit... my transmission was replaced!!

Could you possible post the link to the explanation.
