Abstract
A system and method for overrun prevention is disclosed. Overrun of a one-way clutch may be prevented by determining a current torque value. When a current torque value approaches a negative value, a shift to a gear without a one-way clutch may be performed. Driving control may be increased by shifting from a gear associated with a one-way clutch when a current torque value approaches a negative value or another shifting parameter determines a shift is necessary.
