What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2015 Ram 1500

Your 1500’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Ram, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your 1500’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2015 Ram 1500 to maintain its performance power. Follow Ram's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Ram 1500 Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2015 Ram 1500 drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Ram could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." 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 Ram 1500.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2015 Ram 1500 drivetrain repair is expensive. Minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Big repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.

Questions About 2015 Ram 1500

When you have drivetrain problems, you have driving problems. Check out our top 2015 Ram 1500 drivetrain Q&A below, and visit your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care with any drivetrain concerns.

  • How does Ram drivetrain maintenance help save money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • What are the symptoms of a damaged Ram drivetrain system? Noises toward the back of your Ram 1500, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Ram 1500 differential service? Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my 1500? The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your 1500 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • Is it possible to reset the 1500 malfunction warning light on my own? While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your 1500's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your 1500.
  • How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my 1500? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your 1500. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your 1500.
  • Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my 1500? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your 1500’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your 1500 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
