Theres a relay fuse in the box on fender well under hood and I think mine had similar issues and replaced that relay fuse.Mine would almost jerk n clanged shifting between gears (didnt shift normal rpms)pwr steering I think was hard)etc weird symptoms.Just maybe check all in that box cuz dont remember which one it was?Maybe other problem ,just saying that was my experience.

Mine never jerked or slipped or anything but now it wont go into park and shifter is hard to move like the cable is bad but isn't and when I do put in gear weather over drive or 1,2,3 or reverse u can feel it shift but when u press the gas it tries to move but wont move I checked the breaks all the way around none of them are stuck. The weird thing is the shifter will go to where park is but the dash light indicates that it is in reverse I unhooked the cable from the side of the transmission and tried to shift the transmission by hand and could not do so first time that has happened to me normally I can shift thru all gears like this.
