Your transmission is responsible for moving your engine’s power to your wheels. If it is having issues your performance will suffer and you could cause irreparable damage. If you notice any of these issues, we encourage you to schedule Cadillac repairs at Fields Cadillac Jacksonville.
Your Vehicle Won’t Switch Gears
This is arguably the most obvious sign that you are having transmission issues. This could just be a sign that your transmission fluid is low, or that you aren’t using the appropriate fluid for your vehicle. Our service experts are happy to help you find the culprit.
Your Gears are Slipping
Have you noticed that your vehicle is slow to downshift or upshift while you’re driving? Does it seem like it doesn’t stay in gear? If your gears are slipping, it’s time to have your transmission repaired.
Your Transmission is Making Odd Noises
Naturally, some noise is expected when operating a vehicle. However, if you hear a grinding noise as your gears change, or a whistling sound from under the hood, you likely have a problem with your transmission.
Your Transmission Fluid is Leaking
A fluid leak is a sure sign that you need repairs. You could have corroded parts, a broken seal, or another issue. Typically, transmission fluid is translucent and red-tinted, although it gets darker as it ages.
You Smell a Burning Odor
There are several issues that could create a burning smell under your hood. It could be the result of an old transmission. It could also be caused by something overheating, so it needs to be checked out by a professional no matter what.
