Ok, now, when you took it to the mechanic, did he put in Merceron or Dextron III or something like that?
For ALL CHRYSLER TRANNYS! (FROM THE BEGINNING TO 97) YOU HAVE TO PUT ATF +3 THAT HAS BEEN APPROVED! I had a Jeep Cherokee w/ the I-6 4.0 and all of it is original parts. 92' w/ 180,000+ mi!!!

There's my proof. Make shure that that mechanic puts ATF +3 APPROVED BY CHRYSLER!! Some +3s are not up to specs w/ Chrysler's specs...
BTW, and, so what? Chrysler is just better at catching their stuff. Ford will just wait till someone is hurt! (LOL! Srry!

)
