I would say it wouldn't hurt. I was lent a friend's car when I was without one and they didn't have the transmission flushed forever. Pink fluid was literally black. What color is your fluid? If it's brown to black--yes change it. It surely wouldnt' hurt. I woudln't trust a dealer to repair a car from top to bottom and sell it.
