Just drop the pan and change the filter and add a can of Trans-X ought to be done about every 60,000 miles anyways.

Definitely would flush the tranny. It is just good preventative maintenance for the vehicle. You will get a longer life out of your tranny if done at the right intervals. Damage could be caused by old dirty fluids in it.

Depends on who does it and how.
A reputable shop with the correct Quality equipment will do no harm to it.
However, if you are in doubt, ask a REPUTABLE repair facility to change the filter and "service" the transmission. If there is harm here, it has already been done, and what is left is all that is left.
Good Luck

this depends on the maintenance history of this vehicle, if you don't know then do not do it. change the filter maybe but if this was regularly done then it should be fine. I guess more info would be needed to give you a better answer
