Speaking of fluid, the ZF/Mopar fluid for the trans is a translucent green out of the bottle. When you drain at 60K, it's pretty close to midnight black. Appearance of fluid is never a clear indication of condition and at 60K it still had a decent smell-no hint of overheating or burnt smell. But the appearance since it is so dark could give the unscrupulous an excuse to make maintenance accusations. I'd rank FCA/Stellantis' claim of lifetime trans fluid right up there with a 10K mile oil change interval.....pure marketing mumbo-jumbo.
