Mine does the same thing usually when the truck is cold. I got mine with 19k miles and it's at 40k now. It has always done it. I've read other threads about this and I believe it's normal.

i have a 2010 and it does the same thing when its cold out... does it happen all the time or just after starting it up? im thinking a tune may help as well... anyone with a 2010 5 star tune feel free to chime in!

Same thing here. 67k.. I pick mine up from the dealer tomorrow. I had the heated seat fixed and the heater fan speed controller replaced under warranty. They told me the Trans needed flushed. I told them that the recommended flush is not until 150k. If it needs flushed at 40% of its useful life then there is a bigger issue. I told them that there is a TSB for this very issue and my warranty would cover it. They disagreed. I told them that my warranty runs thru June of 2015 or 107K which ever come first so I have time. I'll try another dealer next time.

So I just took my truck in because this got a little worse and then my trans started leaking. They replaced the pan gasket, shifter seal, and rear transfer case seal. Then they ran the 'Oasis' reprogram to reset the learning strategy on the computer. The truck no longer shifts hard in 2nd, but instead after coming to a stop will slip after downshifting into 1st. Really weird, back to the dealer it goes..

Yes mine whent to shop also the Gasket was leaking on the trans they did a full service on it new fluids filter ect. It still shifts hard to second but nit as bad i think it is they way i drive it :) iam on the has hard when i leave a red light lol and when i take off slow it doesnt shift hard . But i have noticed that if i baby it when it shifts into the last gear it kinda revs up and jerks into gear but doesnt do it when iam on the gas .
