Intermittiently at highway speeds, the truck will shift out of overdrive and I cannot get it to go back into overdrive using the OD button. If I stop and shut off the truck, it will go out and I can select OD or not while standing still or going slowly, then after a couple of miles in OD at highway speeds it shifts out again. Seems kind of electrical. I only have 56K on it since i bought it new, doesn't seem like I should have to replace the transmission, but everyone i talk to says the transmissions on these are terrible.

Has the check engine light come on? Also, has the OD light ever flashed?
