Fluid Leak at Transmission

I have some oily fluid seeping around the dust covers at the bottom of my transmission. Any one else experience this? There is a technical service bulletin regarding an oil leak from an electrical connection on the automatic transmission and was curious if this bulletin addressed the situation. Before I contact my dealer I thought I would ask the question here so I don't just get the old "can't find it"

Had a leak in that area. Dealer replaced the electric connector. Problem solved.

Ditto. Dealer had part in stock. Don't think this is an unusual problem.

Add another one. I hadn't noticed the leak, it was repaired on a routine service visit.
