The engine RPMs started going so low on deceleration that it would stall. Had it in to the dealer many many times, but even after replacing the entire transmission, they could never figure out what was wrong.

The mechanic found some error codes indicating a problem with the Transmission Control Module. I didn't notice anything wrong when driving the car. They ordered the part and made an appointment to get it replaced.

Transmission control unit arrived, went back to dealership and replaced.
Transmission randomly shifts into a null gear, or when shifted into Reverse, it selects 1st instead. Due to the dangerous nature of this problem, and the lack of support from the dealership on the other issues, I decided to trade the car.
