H3 Trans trouble

I have an 07 H3 5 cyl. Last week the converter lock up started acting funny. The pulling up on the brake pedal seemed to straighten it up everytime it malfunctioned. Yesterday morning I was pulling out of a parking lot on to the highway. Everything normal until it shifted into 3rd. Rpms jumped up just like free revving. Barely pulls in 3 and 4. 1st and 2nd feel completely normal . Is this a converter issue maybe or fried trans again?

You mentioned pulling up on the brake pedal. Do you think it may be related to the TCC lock system? I’m not sure what happens if the clutch fails, but it seems like since you were initially having a problem with TCC lockup I’d suspect a problem with the torque converter. You also mention fried transmission “again.” Was the torque converter replaced when the trans was rebuilt/replaced?

It was replaced with the rebuilt trans. That's been almost 3 years ago though. Other than the torque converter issues, the trans felt perfect.

I have a problem with my passing gear. Once you go into it I basically have to let completely off the throttle to get it to come out? Any ideas?
