It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2018 Chevrolet Cruze transmission problems could include shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood.

Questions About 2018 Chevrolet Cruze’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Chevrolet's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chevrolet tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Cruze towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Cruze is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Cruze transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Chevrolet Cruze transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Chevrolet. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Chevrolet Cruze transmission fluid leak? Yes. Chevrolet Cruze transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Who can fix my  Chevrolet Cruze transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for Cruze transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a Cruze with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Cruze to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
