Question Is this a common problem?

My wife recently bought an Windstar -98, and a couple of weeks later when she was traveling on the highway the gear suddenly shifted to 2nd and the rpm increased to around 4000.
The car was towed to an Ford Workshop, and they did an full electronic test, but couldn't find anything wrong. Also during their testdrive, everything seemed normal. 1 hour later on the highway again, the car did the same thing again, shifted to 2nd gear and increased the rpm to 4000.

It seems to me like this is the same problem.

Is there anybody else out there who had the same experience??
Is this a common problem with this car??
