Mopar ATF+4 is the recommended name. No capacity is printed, so this page does not give a fill volume.
Normal service is the single mark at 120,000 miles or 12 years. Police, taxi, fleet, or frequent trailer towing also has the 60,000-mile or 6-year mark.
That reservoir can use Mopar Power Steering Fluid +4 or ATF+4. It is not the transmission, and no capacity is printed for it either.
Engine oil is on the oil guide. Brake fluid is on the brake guide.
No dipstick procedure for the transmission is printed in the pages that were read, so none is added.
Outbound links only. BaySheet does not sell parts. Confirm fitment on the retailer page. Amazon links are searches for a real part name plus this vehicle. Tool rows do not get a product search. The search is not a part number.
