2012 Jeep Liberty Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Jeep's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Jeep Liberty? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Liberty towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Liberty is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Liberty's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Jeep Liberty’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Jeep's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Jeep Liberty? Yes. Jeep Liberty transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
