What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2009 Chrysler Aspen

Your Aspen’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Chrysler, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2009 Chrysler Aspen, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Chrysler's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

When to Get Chrysler Aspen Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2009 Chrysler Aspen drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Chrysler Aspen may need driveshaft attention if you feel resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Chrysler Aspen drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2009 Chrysler Aspen? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.

2009 Chrysler Aspen Drivetrain Questions

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  • How does Chrysler drivetrain maintenance help save money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • What are signs my Chrysler drivetrain is damaged? Your Chrysler Aspen drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.
  • When should I come in for Chrysler Aspen differential service? Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • Why is my Aspen malfunction indicator light (MIL) on? A multitude of problems can activate your Aspen’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.
  • Can you clear the Aspen check engine light on your own? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Aspen’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Aspen serious? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Aspen. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Aspen.
  • Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Aspen? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Aspen’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Aspen forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
