It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2013 Dodge Challenger transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood.

Questions About 2013 Dodge Challenger’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Dodge's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Dodge Challenger? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Challenger towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Challenger's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Dodge Challenger’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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 Dodge Challenger transmission fluid leak? Yes. Dodge Challenger transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.

  • Can I still drive my Dodge Challenger if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended.
