Automatic Transmission Jerk

Once in awhile when i ease off the gas pedal while slowing down, the automatic transmission will go into neutral and then rev up the engine and go back into a gear. The result is a jerk and it doesn't sound very good on the transmission. Has anyone else with an automatic tranny experienced this??

I believe that's called an "upshift flare". We've got two lancers in for them, there's a TSB to be released shortly, apparnetly. bobaab is right, it's a warantee issue, as well.

Never did a burn-out. I drive pretty conservatively. Thanks for the info Graeme. I'll go talk to my dealer about it.
