The whole no dipstick sealed trans thing is like said going on 20 years old.
Coincidentally or not, other than one problem work truck, haven’t blown a trans on any of those vehicles. Also maintained em. I don’t go overboard but try to keep trans fluid and filter changes to around 50k miles intervals or so.
I also always get most/all of the old fluid out not just a pan drop and refill. I’ll do a Polish trans flush if I have to. (Pan drop and refill (which is about 1/2 the fluid) 3 or 4x.
