  • How much can my Dodge tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small.

A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Dodge. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Dodge B350 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Dodge B350 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
