What happens if I "ride" my Jeep's brakes?

Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.

How much can I tow in a Jeep Wrangler?

Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Wrangler’s towing capacity.

How often does my Wrangler transmission fluid need to be checked?

Maintaining your Jeep Wrangler transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health.

Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
