What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2016 Ford Transit-150

Your Transit-150 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Ford, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2016 Ford Transit-150, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Ford's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Ford Transit-150 Drivetrain Repairs

We can fix many 2016 Ford Transit-150 drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Transit-150 might need driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Ford Transit-150 doesn’t drive like it used to.
