Is Castrol Multivehicle ATF oil safe?

Hey guys, my local Penzoil shop says that will use Castrol MultiVehicle ATF transmission oil for my transmission flush. Is this product equivalent to Nissan J-Matic (it does say so on the back of the bottle though...) or should I strickly stick with Nissan J-Matic at my dealership?

You can go with the non-OEM oil as long as it is the same grade. Trust me, I work at an OEM automaker and the aftermarket stuff is the same quality.

Looks like it will be OK

but I would verify with the dealership the next time you are in the area just to be sure. It would be expensive to say the least if it isnt.
