Why is Your 2010 Ranger’s Transmission So Important?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire.

It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Ford Ranger transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Ford Ranger transmission trouble you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Ranger at all.

Questions About 2010 Ford Ranger’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Ford? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Ford Ranger? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Ranger towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my Ranger's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2010 Ranger’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. 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 Ranger? Yes, your Ford Ranger can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Ranger ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

  • Can I drive my Ford Ranger with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Ranger if it’s leaking transmission fluid.

You might even experience transmission failure.
