When i'm going down hill at high speeds , the transmission down shift very hard when i apply the brake at all. It sounds like a very loud revving. Once i press the accelerator again it goes back to normal. It's very concerning , my car has 59,000 mile on it and dealer says they couldn't feel anything, well that probably because they didn't drive it down hill.

I went to my car after work and attempted to start it but a shift system fault error occurred and the car began putting the emergency brake on when i tried to shift to park. It would say "shift to park" even when my knob showed that the gear was in park. It would also rotate the knob back to p every now and then when you attempt to shift into a different gear.
