What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2010 Dodge Challenger

Your Challenger’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Dodge, 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. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2010 Dodge Challenger, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Dodge's recommendations.

When to Get Dodge Challenger 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 go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2010 Dodge Challenger drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Dodge Challenger may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Dodge Challenger drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2010 Dodge Challenger? Minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Big repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.

Questions About 2010 Dodge Challenger

Got drivetrain problems? Then you’ve got driving problems. Get answers to everyday 2010 Dodge Challenger drivetrain questions, and stop by your neighborhood Firestone Complete Auto Care today.

  • Can Dodge service save me money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • What are signs my Dodge drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your Dodge Challenger? 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.
  • When should I come in for Dodge Challenger differential service? Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • What causes a Challenger’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? If your Challenger 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 my Challenger malfunction warning light be reset at home? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Challenger’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 concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Challenger? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Challenger. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Challenger.
  • Is my Challenger’s transmission part of the drivetrain? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Challenger’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Challenger forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
