Transmission down shifts randomly

Recently had my transmission overhauled and with the exception of this one issue shifts and drives perfect. The transmission will sometimes not shift into 3 or it will randomly begin down shifting. I can seemingly make it shift by shifting to 2nd or bumping shifter towards neutral. I have changed filter and fluid as well as the plastic bushings in the column and screws that were loose on the column. Has anyone have any ideas? The truck is a 2002 F150 Supercrew with a 4.6

Do you have a warranty on the rebuild?

No warranty has expired the truck doesn’t have a lot of miles on the transmission. We started driving something else shortly after having the transmission overhauled.

The first step to fix this is to read the codes. Get Forscan at www.forscan.org.
