Questions About 1994 Dodge Shadow’s Transmission

  • How much can my Dodge tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your Shadow towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 1994 Shadow’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform.

Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Dodge, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
