The service manual clearly indicates regular band adjustments... every 30,000 miles for "most vehicles."
Besides shifting problems, failure to regularily adjust the front (kickdown) band can cause it to become loose enough so that the link strut can fall out... just ask TDR member Dodoro: Front band wedge fell out -Reason for no 1 -2 shift
Best regards,
