Hear noises toward the back of your Jeep Cherokee? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

When should I come in for Jeep Cherokee differential service?

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Cherokee?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Cherokee can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can my Cherokee malfunction warning light be reset at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Cherokee serious?

Is my Cherokee’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Cherokee’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Cherokee forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1995 Jeep Cherokee

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Cherokee's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your Cherokee and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 1995 Jeep Cherokee to maintain its performance power. Follow Jeep's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Jeep Cherokee Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 1995 Jeep Cherokee drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Cherokee might need driveshaft repair if you notice heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Jeep Cherokee doesn’t drive like it used to.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 1995 Jeep Cherokee? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
