Your transmission is not down shifting. It is staying in overdrive. The torque converter after you go thru the gears locks in to the same speed as your crankshaft. It is staying in lock position.I would be typing all night if I tryed to explain it to you. So call a transmission shop and have them to explain it to you over the phone. But your tranny is not downshifting.
