Default OD acting strange

got me a 99 2wd w/a 3.9 auto, and the dam thing acts like it slipps out of OD when i take my foot of the gas some times....step on the gas and you can feel it going back into OD after a hesatation, this is not a normal shift down, just started acting like this in the last few mounths and I have had her for a year. first one for me with the push buten OD. she has 110K there about, could it be just fluid break down? she had 68K when i got her, and not throwing any codes on the reader.

mine seems to drop down btwn 40-45 again almost like an exta gear and acts like your describing, but mine is just the torque converter locking and unlocking as i let on and off the gas(i think)
