When we first bought our 97 Grand Caravan, I noticed the discoloration in the overflow tank and had similar concerns that you had voiced. More specifically, I had thought one of the many summer new hires had accidently poured trany oil into the refill bottle mistakenly. During our 6 month checkup, I had the dealer sample the fluid and required he run an analysis on the contents of fluid as well as sign on the analysis so that should there be a latent failure, liability shifts to dodge or the dealer. The analysis came back negitive and the trany has been trouble free to this point (36K/5years of moderate driving). My figures our crossed in hope that I do not suffer the dreaded "transmission demise" most dodge minivan owners complain of.
