42k and smooth. I have a 42RLE and an E40D to compare to and it’s definitely the smoothest 😉

90k+ without fault. Paired with a 2.0t and it's still zippy as all get out. Changed the fluid and put on the PPE pan a few months back.
Best auto tranny I've ever driven.

Yes….. I also have the same transmission in my ram work truck. Pulls the trailer a couple times a week and there’s always 3-4 hundred pounds of tools in the back under the tonneau cover….has 154K miles on it and I haven’t touched the transmission at all…. Haven’t decided yet if I’m gonna change fluid in the jeep or not….. if I do, it will be at 50K

69K on mine. 57K on hers. Zero issues. I did the transmission fluid dump & fill three times on each at 50K miles.

Nobody’s tried to shoot them but they’ve made it 33,000, 54,000 & 98,000km respectively with no issues.

Most of the Jeep transmissions are a ZF design but made in the USofA by Stellantis. If you want to know for sure look at the bottom right corner of your window sticker. Here's a copy from my 392:
