Bad luck or driving habits.  It's not a Chrysler, it's a GM, the tranny 
should last a heck of a long time.  Do you use the parking brake?  Do 
you set it before shifting into park?  Are you SURE you're completely 
stopped before shifting from Drive to Reverse (or vice versa)?  Do you 
have teenagers? :)  Do you go for 'tire chirping shifts'?  Do you tow?  
Hot weather?  Hot weather and tow?  Do you tow it?

Lots of things affect tranny life, but they generaly last long - we've 
gotten over 150,000 miles on automatics at our house...
