Why is Your 2009 Patriot’s Transmission So Important?

Such problems aren’t hard to spot. 2009 Jeep Patriot transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you ignore Jeep Patriot transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Patriot at all.

Questions About 2009 Jeep Patriot’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your 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.
  • What can I tow in a Jeep? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. 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 Patriot's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Jeep Patriot’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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Jeep Patriot? Yes. Jeep Patriot 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.
  • Who can fix my  Jeep Patriot transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for Patriot transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I drive my Jeep Patriot with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Patriot to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
