This only happens in the mountains though, right? With AT you can't rely much on engine braking so maybe you were just overworking your brakes when going downhill. Maybe you wanna go in the mountains again and try using the brakes less (like braking harder to slow down and then release the brakes, rather than riding on the brakes) to see if that solves the problem. Or if you're going under 50 mph, try driving in 2nd gear.

Anyway, you might wanna post the problem in the Tech section so we don't get too off-topic here.
