Questions About 1983 Chrysler New Yorker’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chrysler's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chrysler New Yorker? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your New Yorker towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my New Yorker's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Chrysler New Yorker’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Chrysler's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Chrysler New Yorker transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Chrysler New Yorker can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your New Yorker ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Where can I get my  Chrysler New Yorker transmission fixed? When your New Yorker transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Chrysler New Yorker if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended.
