I really appreciate the advice here and offers of help. Not saying that they would've taken advantage of a lady in trouble, but the wife was so relieved to have some good information to bring to the discussion.
Told her that once she gets home, we'll take a look at the cooler and get the seals checked. Told her to enjoy the rest of her trip and keep an eye on things.
Thanks again!

Glad to hear and although not all shops do it. But we all know it does happen. A lady takes a car into the shop. The shop just see dollar signs.
The shop was probablly back pedlling when she told them about the over heating and the seal.
I would for sure look into a bigger trans cooler. Also if you have not done so, if the truck is equipped with an external inline trans filter remove it. They cause restriction of flow, which can cause the trans to over heat.
