Can Ford drivetrain maintenance help me save money?

How often should I come in for Ford Edge differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Edge, but it's important to resist the urge.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2007 Ford Edge

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Edge's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Ford, from the axles to the transmission. 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 2007 Ford Edge, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Ford's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

When to Get Ford Edge 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 come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2007 Ford Edge drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Edge might need driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. 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. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Ford Edge doesn’t drive like it used to.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2007 Ford Edge? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
