Transmission Question

[Frex]

I have a 2016 3.6L FWD Journey with 107K miles.  I have a receipt of work done that said the transmission fluid was changed at 62K, however, I cannot confirm it.  It was done at a Tires Plus and when I called there they said they typically don't change transmission fluid.  (I'm thinking it maybe the old charge for something and not do it, but I have no idea.) In any event, while replacing my radiator I did not seat the trans cooler lines properly and they blew off.  I had the car towed and had the lines properly seated and had about approximately 5 quarts of trans fluid placed back into the car.  The car drives fine expect for a minor tick with the first gear change of the day, which may have always been there but I notice now because of being hyper sensitive with the transmission.

 

I know the manual says to change the trans fluid at 120K.  Do you guys think I should have it changed at 120K given I had 5 new quarts put in when I lost the trans cooler lines?  I did nothing with the filter or anything else- just replaced the lost transmission fluid.

Based on my experience 

and what I have learned.

 

I feel the minimum service

would be fluid and filter change at 60k miles.

 

Personally, I feel doing a transmission flush is an expensive gamble.
