What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan

Your Grand Caravan’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: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Dodge's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Dodge Grand Caravan Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Dodge Grand Caravan may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." 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 Grand Caravan drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
