I went to a garage for auto transmission fluid flush for my 2015 Mazda 5 the other day and they said that the pan has rotted so they don't feel comfortable to flush the fluid when it will likely start to leak soon after they put the pan back on.
The car has been in MA with it's first owner and I bought it in RI. Does 6 years seem short for the transmission pan to get rusted to a point that it needs a new one? It is not leaking right now but theyau have a point that the surrounding area of the bolt holes got eaten away so they will likely destroy it by removing it and try to clean the mating surface.
