I used the submission form at centerforqa.com to inquire about Smitty's ATF+4. Here is the reply e-mail I just got:
Quote:
Thank you for your contact. Smitty's is not a licensed product and,
therefore, not recommended for use in Chrysler transmissions.
ATF+4(r) is a unique formulation that has been designed specifically to
meet the exacting requirements of Chrysler transmissions. The fluid has
gone through an extensive developmental and testing process, including
more than one million miles of severe field testing. It is a high
performance, synthetic fluid that provides significant reduction in
component wear, superior temperature performance, consistent shift
quality, and exceptional friction modifying properties.
Only licensed ATF+4(r) products (with "ATF+4(r)" as part of the brand
name and a valid license number on the back of the label) contain the
unique formulation. Other look-alike products that claim to be suitable
for use in Chrysler transmissions have not gone through Chrysler's
rigorous testing process and are not approved or recommended for use in
Chrysler transmissions.
Thank you for your interest in properly caring for your Chrysler
vehicle. I hope this provides you with the information you need. If
you have any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Cox
