What’s the Importance of Your 2011 Mustang’s Transmission?

2011 Ford Mustang Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Ford? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Ford Mustang? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Mustang’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Mustang is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Mustang transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Ford Mustang transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Ford's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Ford Mustang transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Ford Mustang, potentially causing transmission problems.
