My understanding is draining trans fluid can cause junk to circulate and that got into some other parts which I replaced a couple of times for several $hundreds.
I had a ‘93 Concorde and a ‘95 LHS and a friend had a ‘94 one model below the Concorde, I cannot recall the name at the moment. His car suffered major transmission failure in the first year and my LHS had just a solenoid failure. It seems that these cars suffered more than average major tranny failures, I think I was lucky.
I still think these cars for all their faults, AC, tranny and wiring, were great cars, my 2007 300 however was a monumental piece of garbage. I replaced it with a Hyundai, great little car.
