Why is Your 2008 Fusion’s Transmission So Important?

They're often easy to notice. 2008 Ford Fusion transmission problems can show up 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 Fusion transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or discover that your Fusion’s not even driveable.

Questions About 2008 Ford Fusion’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Ford's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Ford Fusion? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Fusion’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Fusion is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Fusion's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Ford Fusion transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 Ford, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Ford Fusion? Yes. Ford Fusion transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Who does Ford Fusion transmission repair? When your Fusion 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 Fusion if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Fusion if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
