Hyperbole from ancient Greek 'exaggeration') is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. It may be used to evoke strong feelings or to create a strong impression, but is not meant to be taken literally.
Or did you mean it literally? If so, how does a fluid change prolong the life of the mechtronics unit, solenoids, sensors, wiring, torque converters, and all the other devices that have led to transmission failures?

No argument at all here with people changing their transmission fluid if they so choose, but let's not pretend that it is going to fix all the world's problems.
