[Solved] 2012 Mazda 3 6-speed automatic oddity

Hi:

My girlfriend's 2012 Mazda 3 has a Skyactiv 6-speed automatic transmission (I think it's one of the good ones). She thought something was weird with it and had me drive it last week. The strange thing it did was to apparently downshift repeatedly when I let off the accelerator pedal entering an off-ramp when driving at about 45 mph. The tach showed increased revs, indicating it was downshifting even though I didn't touch the gear selector lever or the brake pedal.

Is this normal?

Thanks in advance for your time and attention. I have benefited multiple times from your experience and advice.

Dave
