Are you driving irresponsibly?

The transmission is computer controled. If you drive hard the computer learns that the shifts need to be firm. If you drive lightly(like a normal person), the shifts will tend be more harsh (bang) than is needed. My wife complains about this when she drives my neon. Also if you let up on the throttle just as it shifts it will shift too hard. Try to drive gently for a few days and see if it learns the new pattern.
