Did you ever call the 1-800 customer asst line for Chrysler that was in the back of the owners manual? I would be supprised if they would not help you out. and if they did not that is too bad.
For the record I have a 06 minivan with the 4speed auto 75K miles, no issues with the van at all, and also a 08 Sebring 3.5 6speed auto. Same thing both have been reliable as a stone.
