Some 2010 Flex, MKS, MKT and Taurus vehicles equipped with Eco Boost (GTDI) engine and built on or before 3/1/2010 may exhibit an automatic transmission bump after a 3-1 coasting downshift below 10 MPH (16 Km/h). A new calibration is available that will improve shift feel and reduce the bump after a 3-1 coasting downshift below 10 MPH (16 Km/h).
