How often should I come in for Chrysler Crossfire differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

Is it possible to reset the Crossfire malfunction warning light on my own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Crossfire’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems.

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.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my Crossfire?
