Differential Service

The differential works with your transmission to deliver power from the engine to the axle that turns your wheels. The differential allows your vehicle’s wheels to rotate at different speeds during turns, without the wheel binding or hopping. If you have a rear-wheel drive vehicle, the differential is on the rear axle. If you have a front-wheel-drive vehicle, the differential function is handled by your transaxle. Of course, all-wheel drive vehicles have differentials on both axles.

Why is differential service important for my vehicle?
