They're meant to be sealed units, the dealers don't want owners checking their fluid levels as too often they make mistakes and damage the trans. They prefer you wait until the proper service interval is reached or only check fluid when there is an indication of a problem. That said, you can get the part you need to check/add fluid from the dealer, the port is on the pan. Fluid level has to be checked at a specific temperature. If you aren't having problems with yours, and no signs of leaking ATF, then don't mess with it.

I know to many people that have had their transmission go out because there was no way to check and add the fluid.

No ATF dipstick! Shame on Chrysler! That is acceptable ONLY when there is a GAUGE ON THE DASH.

I don't think I've ever seen a car that had a 'gauge' for the transmission. What is it reading? Pressure or temperature? I think you're talking about the engine oil, for which there is a dipstick, and both the engine oil temperature and pressure can be read from the vehicle info center on the dash of all vans from 2008 on up.
