Signs You Need Dodge Transmission Service

If the engine is the heart of the vehicle, then the transmission is the brain. The transmission is what changes the gears of your vehicle, and when there’s an issue, it can spell disaster. When you need Dodge transmission service, you need to get it done sooner rather than later.

Our service team at Prestige Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM is here to educate you on the signs that it is time to get Dodge transmission maintenance.

Trouble Shifting Gears

When you shift gears in your vehicle, it should be a swift, fluid process. However, if you are feeling a lot of resistance, or if your vehicle is making loud out-of-the-ordinary noises when you change gears, you should bring it in to the Dodge service center.

Burning Smell

While you are out on the road, if you smell something burning, that also might be a sign that there are issues with your transmission.

Car Shaking

Pay attention to what your vehicle is doing while you are out on the road. If you can feel your vehicle shaking, it’s a sign that there is an issue with your transmission.

Transmission Fluid Leaking

Take a look under your vehicle and check for leaks. Remember, if you have the AC running, the condenser in your vehicle is going to drip. Transmission fluid has a dark red color, so you will be able to tell if it is leaking from the bottom of your vehicle.

If you notice any of these telltale signs, bring your vehicle in to the Dodge service center here at Prestige Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM. Our team will take a look at it to make sure it is running properly, and that your transmission fluid is topped off, too.
