    Abstract: An apparatus and method for altering the drivability of a vehicle so as to alert a driver of the vehicle of a potentially hazardous condition. The vehicle has at least one sensor configured to detect the potentially hazardous potential. Additionally, the vehicle has a control system for directing a transmission of the vehicle to perform a transmission operation that catches the driver's attention by generating an acceleration or deceleration. The transmission operation is preferably an upshift, a downshift, an unlocking of a torque converter lockup clutch or a locking of the lockup clutch. In one embodiment, the control system directs the transmission to perform more than one transmission operation, the transmission operations defining a transmission operation cycle. In a preferred embodiment, more than one transmission operation cycle is performed. Potentially hazardous conditions include traffic in front of the vehicle, a second vehicle approaching from the rear, an upcoming curve in the road, an approaching speed limit or an upcoming banked portion of the road.

    Abstract: A system and method of immobilizing a vehicle include receiving a driver presence signal and a transmission state signal and commanding a transmission tie-up in response to the driver presence signal and the transmission state signal. In one embodiment, controlling a transmission element to tie-up a transmission includes braking approximately simultaneously a combination of transmission elements to inhibit rotation of a transmission output and maintaining transmission line pressure to maintain the transmission tie-up when an engine is off.

    Abstract: A hybrid vehicle having an engine and motor in series with a step ratio automatic transmission shifts the transmission according to a first shift schedule based on driver demand and output speed or a second shift schedule based on efficient operating speeds of the engine and motor associated with the target gear ratio. A powertrain controller continually calculates engine and motor speeds and torques associated with target gear ratios for the second shift schedule to select a gear ratio based on operating efficiency. An arbitration strategy may compare a weighted target gear ratio from the first schedule shift schedule to a weighted target gear ratio from the second shift schedule to dynamically select a desired target gear for powertrain control management.
