When pressing down gas pedal all the way...to speed up quickly...long lag from 1st to second.

I had this happen once in normal mode...turning left and needed to get in the right lane shortly after the turn. Put my turn signal on and no one would let me over. Sped up and then slowed down to merge in the right lane between cars. The car in the right lane slowed down to take a right. When I got on the accelerator to jump into the space vacated by the car turning right, the explorer just lagged speeding up...it was like the transmission was confused because I sped up, then slowed down and then accelerated again. I'm wondering if this would happen in Sport mode....it was really strange and only has happened that one time.
So might be similar issue to what I experienced yesterday.
Full acceleration from stop light. It shifted to second normally, then didn't shift into third and just bounced on rev limiter. I let off and after a few seconds, shifted into third.
Now I've noticed it basically has no power. It feels like a normal V6. I checked all hoses and all okay. It even has to change gear on interstate when going up minor hills, it has never done that. The awesome agressive acceleration is gone, regardless of mode. It is very sluggish and just doesn't want to go.
I have noticed that it always had a sound like a whipple supercharger, turbo whine, that is now gone. Completely stock, 2021 with 2800 miles. No dash warning lights.
