2018 Dodge Challenger Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Dodge's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Dodge tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Challenger is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Challenger's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Dodge Challenger transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Dodge Challenger transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Dodge Challenger, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who can fix my  Dodge Challenger transmission leak? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair Challenger transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a Challenger with a transmission fluid leak? Driving your Challenger with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
