manufacturer rebuilt vs indy rebuilt transmission
I have a '98 Dodge Caravan v.6 3 speed automatic transmission.
Transmission is dead; service shop at Chrysler dealership recommends installing tranny rebuilt by Chrysler: cost $4000 Canadian (3350 US) inc. labour, three year warranty. Local transmission shop would do the job for $1700 (Cdn.) inc. labour, 2 year warranty. Is the Chrysler rebuilt part worth the additional $2300? Thanks, Frank

Chrysler is not in the rebuilding business. Their dealer network buys rebuilt transmissions from whatever mass-rebuilder had the lowest bid for the current contract interval. Just like "Mopar" oil filters have been variously made by Fram, Wix/Dana, and who-knows-else over the years. The same is true for ALL automakers, by the way. You're much better off with a local rebuild by a competent shop.
