the plug I unscrewed was actually NOT the oil plug...it was the transmission fluid drain plug....

Luckily I knew the difference in the color...or else....

SO yeah, I think it's VERY plausible that a mechanic could make the same mistake....and instead of owning up to it....just act like it didn't happen. If the Chrysler 200 is anything like my old 2002 A4, you can't just put the plug on and top the trans fluid off....it's a pretty involved refilling process that has to be done with an appropriate pressuring valve or something...I still don't understand the mechanics of it...I just know it required a trip to the proper shop that had the proper equipment to perform the job.....

so yeah...I don't know if you got a case...but you do have valid reason for suspicion IMO..
