Downshifting into first gear
I have the 7 A/T and intermittently when coming to a stop, the car downshifts very hard into first gear. It feels as if someone has hit me from behind. Does anyone else have this problem?

basiacally the AT will not shift up for you so you can bang it off the redline BUT it downshifts no matter what so the engine doesnt stall.

I have a '15. Does not shift at redline. Oddly enough, if left in automatic mode for a spirited sprint it will Rev up all the way to 7800 before shifting. After that happened a couple times I got used to flicking it over to manual mode for merging onto highways.

Yes. Usually it will downshift on the curving on ramp to 4ish, but then when I gun it to not get run over on the highway (on ramps sharing the same lane as off ramps suck) it downshifts to 2-3 and likes to run up the rpms closer to 8k. My Rev limiter is set to 7k, so it's blinking and everything.

The 7AT will down shift when the rpms go under 1500 to keep from stalling
Even thou it will hold 2nd gear for longer at low speeds and rpm, it does shift u back into first at speeds under 10mph. Sometimes under 15mph if your foot is not on the accelerator
