700r4 no first gear

I have a 700r4 in my car that drives great except, if i put it in manual first it goes 10 feet then locks up the tires and just revs, if I drive I only feel the 2-3 shift not the 1-2, and if I come to a stop in third gear I feel 1 downshift which I imagine is 2-3. I’ve adjusted the TV cable and it has not changed anything so I reset it back to where it shifts the best but nothing has changed. The transmission only has 50 miles on it since rebuild.

Take it back as the builder messed up something.

Sometimes if you want something done right you have to do it yourself.
