What Does Your Dodge Journey Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, even the smallest transmission problems should be addressed right away. It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2013 Dodge Journey transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Dodge Journey transmission trouble you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Journey at all.

Questions About 2013 Dodge Journey’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Dodge's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Dodge Journey? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Journey towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Journey is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Journey transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Dodge Journey’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Dodge, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Dodge Journey leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Dodge Journey can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Journey ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
