With Chrysler's not-so-wonderful tranny reputation, I would change out the filter and fluid for peace of mind.
 
chrysler on the mini vans had good transmissions according to my brother which for ten years was in the transmission business he clains the computor was the problem for trans failures

Does the fluid look clean? I'm guessing you've given it the "smell test" and it smells normal.


Why does the mystery fluid have to be Lubegard?


It doesn't have to be lubegard. It could be Seafoam Transtune or Lucas transmission fix. Lubegard came to mind while I was typing the post and in my experience, it does seem to help an ailing transmission.
