Transmission service question

[Bacon6]

I have a 2015 ram 1500 bighorn w/5.7 hemi 4x4 with aprox 170,000 mi and 8 speed trans, back around 90,000 i had the transmission serviced so today i started looking into having it done again. I called a Ram dealer and the service department told me that being a sealed transmission they didn’t recommend having it done, puzzling to me, so I called another dealership Same answer, with that i called at least 5 different transmission shops, most would do it but several again said they didn’t recommend it, what gives here I thought this was something that should be done every 100k give or so. Should I have it done or not and also should i have the Pan/Filter replaced also ? They are asking anywhere from $850. To 1200. Thanks

I'd dyi as you cant even check the fluid level after some shop does it. A while back the Japanese made shaken law, it was a scam to make everyone buy a new car every 5 years. As it turns out it was a huge success for their gov't, the envy of the world, Japan is the only developed nation where auto manu is the number one industry. Ever since their success USA and euro have tried to make cars disposable. Nothing gives govt loads of freaking sweaty cash like auto sales, like 10 grand per vehicle. So they build stuff so you don't service it and it breaks sooner then older stuff. For now their is a work around = dyi. So either dyi or let it break and program in so the govt can take loads more of your money. 170k miles, Japan would have an arrest warrant on you for being a bad citizen, lol.
