Can Chrysler service save me money?

What are the symptoms of a damaged Chrysler drivetrain system?

Noises toward the back of your Chrysler Sebring, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often will I need Chrysler Sebring 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 Sebring’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

If your Sebring 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 Sebring check engine light on your own?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Sebring?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Sebring, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Is my Sebring’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Sebring is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1998 Chrysler Sebring

Your Sebring drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Chrysler, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 1998 Chrysler Sebring to maintain its performance power. Follow Chrysler's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Chrysler Sebring Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Your Chrysler could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates.

Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Chrysler Sebring drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 1998 Chrysler Sebring? Again, it depends!
