when slowing down to almost stop and then accelerate the trans feels like it is slipping

Hi stockcar8. "Slippage" is a common problem with transmissions in general. However, your vehicle is way too new (2007) for this to be happening. This usually doesn't occur for thousands of miles. I would take it into the dealership (since it's still covered by the factory warranty) and take a technician for a ride and show them what it's doing. If it really is "slipping" they will be forced to either rebuild the transmission or replace it with a new one. Good luck!
