What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2023 Ford Bronco

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Bronco's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Ford, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2023 Ford Bronco, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Ford's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Ford Bronco drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2023 Ford Bronco? Minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable.
