Default Upshifts when accelerating in a corner?

Weird.. My car downshifts fine when accerating while going straight. But if I accelerate in a corner it always upshifts instead of downshifts, making hard power off a corner impossible.

Is there some yaw sensor that says "hell no you can't accelerate, you're leaning for god's sake" ? I know we have a yaw sensor but I never pictured it would affect this much.... (Edit: Now that I've read, it doesn't appear the yaw sensor does that)

Teh any opinions?

I changed tranny fluid a few thousands miles ago. Messed up the fluid level for a few days but chrysler fixed it when they fixed the oring leak. (Unless, of course, they didnt actually do what they said). But either way this was happening even before any fluid changes.

I just use the autostick to downshift to second, when turning
quickly it will stay in second. No upshift.
