Soo let me see if I can see what you are saying... When you put the car in drive... it will go from 1st... accelerate, overrev in first, and harshly shift into 3rd gear? My brother's Lebaron used too do that. He neeeded a new trannie, so he said to hell with it and bought a new car.

Scan for codes, see what you get. Shift solenoid, wiring? Did you try hand shifting 1,2,3, then switch on o/d?
