2021 Ford Mustang Transmission Q&A

  • 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. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Ford tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Mustang’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Mustang's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2021 Mustang’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Ford Mustang? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Ford Mustang, potentially causing transmission problems.
