All About 2020 Lincoln Continental Drivetrain Service

Your Continental drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your Continental’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2020 Lincoln Continental, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Lincoln's recommendations.

What Are Lincoln Continental Drivetrain Repairs

We can fix many 2020 Lincoln Continental drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Lincoln Continental may need driveshaft attention if you feel resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates.

So much depends on the climate and your driving style. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Lincoln Continental.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2020 Lincoln Continental?
