Can Chrysler service save me 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?

Hear noises toward the back of your Chrysler LeBaron? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

How often will I need Chrysler LeBaron differential service?

We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

What causes a LeBaron’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

If your LeBaron has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can you clear the LeBaron 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 LeBaron’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.

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

If your LeBaron has a drivetrain malfunction, don't wait. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Identifying the underlying cause and performing the appropriate repairs right away can help prevent further damage and avoid unsafe driving conditions.

Does my LeBaron transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your LeBaron’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your LeBaron forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1989 Chrysler LeBaron

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your LeBaron's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Chrysler, from back to front. It’s one of your LeBaron’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1989 Chrysler LeBaron, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Chrysler's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Chrysler LeBaron 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 1989 Chrysler LeBaron drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Chrysler could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Chrysler LeBaron.

How much does it cost to fix your 1989 Chrysler LeBaron drivetrain? Minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
