2002 9-5 Automatic

I have been so frustrated by my automatic tranny since I bought the car in May. The thing hesitates to get the car moving, shifts at the wrong time,etc. It's not turbo lag. I read that there was a new software update available but after my 10K service last week, where I specifically asked for it, they can't tell me if what I have. Invoice said, "Test drove, found no problem." I didn't ask for a test drive I asked for a software update. Whether I have bad software or a poorly designed tranny I don't know but this thing sucks. Things usually get better when you drive hard but the Buick suspension on the Linear makes you want to drive like my mother. Yesterday I'm on the interstate doing about 75mph in the middle lane and decide to pull to the left to pass the guy in front of me. I pull out, jam my right foot down and nothing happens for about a second, no downshift, no climbing revs. A second seems rather long when the car behind you is closing at 85+. I guess I have to go have some discussions with my service advisor. If they can't improve it then I need to think early trade-in.
