1988 Chrysler New Yorker Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chrysler's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Chrysler? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your New Yorker’s towing capacity.

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 transmission fluid leak from my Chrysler New Yorker? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chrysler New Yorker, potentially causing transmission problems.
