I found this recall listed on Autobytel.com today.
thought I'd post it FYI
Campaign Number: 00V197000 Date: 07/17/00
Vehicle Description: Pickup trucks equipped with 4.7L
engine and automatic
transmissions. The automatic transmission may expel
fluid from the fill tube
during normal temperature operation.
The transmission fluid could come into contact with
the hot exhaust system and
ignition of the transmission fluid could result.
Dealers will shorten the vent hose and assure
adequate clearance.
Owner notification is expected to begin during late
August 2000. Owners who
take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an
agreed upon service date and
do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable
time should contact
DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-992-1997. Also contact the
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at
1-888-DASH-2-DOT
(1-888-327-4236).
