Default Transmission Downshift Problem (2001 Automatic)

First off, Hello. I am new to the forums and looking for some help for my parents. They have a 2001 PT Cruiser Limited. They have had this problem before and had it fixed by the factory. When you are slowing to a stop, the car will lunge into gear. It is not at every stop but most of the time.
The problem was fixed about a year and a half ago and has recently reappeared. It was first thought to be a simple transmission fluid change needed, but ended up needing to be the transmission valve-body changed.
Just wondering if this is an isolated incident or a common problem? To have the exact same problem spring up after only 1.5 years seems a little ridiculous.

Looking forward to your replies,
Adam
