Exclamation Shifting Issue

My 2011 Ecoboost with 85k has an scary shifting issue, going down road it downshifts on its own, no warning. On way home last night I was going 50mph and truck started jerking, watched gear selector go from 4th to 3rd then back up to 6th.
I have it going to Ford next week to check out

Yes, doesn't sound good. Possibly related to this?

Thanks
I'm hoping they can find problem, I have read that note from Ford, called and my 2011 isn't in the recall, they go by build date.
Truck is going to local Ford dealer tomorrow, I plan to give service manager that letter plus a tsb I found regarding issue.

Update on my shifting issue
The Ford guys were great to work with, as expected they didn't find a code or witness issue while driving, John, service manager did some reading based on info I had given him off web, they found that flashing transmission would be best course of action, and they hope that if I do have issue again their would be a code stored.
I've drove truck there days and no issues
