Your Grand Cherokee drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Jeep, from back to front.

Care for your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Jeep's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Drivetrain Repairs

Your Jeep Grand Cherokee may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates.
