Why is Your 2006 Freestyle’s Transmission So Important?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Freestyle’s performance. It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Ford Freestyle transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Ford Freestyle transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your Freestyle’s not even driveable.

Ford Transmission Recommendations for 2006 Freestyles

According to Ford, your Freestyle’s transmission should be checked regularly for wear and tear. Specifically, your Freestyle differential and transmission fluids should be exchanged at regular intervals with Ford-approved products. Our technicians know how to service your 2006 Freestyle up to Ford-recommended standards. Schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign of transmission problems to help diagnose, treat, and prevent major transmission issues.

2006 Ford Freestyle Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Ford'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 Ford Freestyle? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Freestyle towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Freestyle's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Ford Freestyle’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Ford. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Ford Freestyle? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Ford Freestyle, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who does Ford Freestyle transmission repair? When your Freestyle transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Should I avoid driving my Ford Freestyle if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Freestyle to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
