Common Signs Your Jeep Needs Service
Jeeps are built tough, but they’re not immune to wear and tear, especially with how hard they’re driven. If you notice any of the following issues, it’s a good idea to have your Jeep inspected before things get worse:
Warning Lights Are On:
The check engine light or ABS light shouldn’t be ignored, even if the vehicle seems to drive normally. We specialize in pinpointing these kinds of problems quickly and accurately.
Vibrations at Highway Speeds:
Shaking through the steering wheel or floorboard often points to suspension issues, wheel balance problems, or worn driveline components.
Steering Feels Loose or Drifts:
Jeeps are known for their off-road suspension, but they should still handle predictably. Wandering steering or a loose feel may mean worn ball joints, bushings, or alignment issues.
Unusual Noises:
Clunking, whining, or grinding sounds while turning or accelerating could indicate issues with your axles, differentials, or transfer case.
Hard Shifts or Slipping Transmission:
If your Jeep hesitates, revs unexpectedly, or clunks when shifting gears, it may be time for a transmission replacement or fluid service.
Leaks Underneath the Vehicle:
Any sign of fluid on your driveway or garage floor is worth investigating, especially coolant, oil, or transmission fluid leaks.
If you’re noticing any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Addressing them early can save you from bigger, costlier repairs down the road.
Common Jeep Services We Handle
Jeeps are unique. From their rugged suspension setups to their 4×4 drivetrains, they require experienced hands and the right equipment. At Trustworthy Auto, that’s exactly what we offer.
Suspension & Steering Repairs
If your Jeep feels loose, drifts while driving, or you’re noticing uneven tire wear, it’s likely time for suspension work. We use top-tier alignment equipment to make sure everything is dialed in correctly. From control arms to ball joints, our team knows how to get your Jeep driving straight and stable again.
Experiencing the Jeep Death Wobble?
If your Jeep starts violently shaking after hitting a bump—especially at highway speeds—you may be dealing with the infamous “death wobble.” It’s typically caused by worn suspension components like track bar bushings, tie rods, or ball joints.
At Trustworthy Auto, we specialize in diagnosing and correcting this issue with precision. We’ll inspect your entire front-end system and restore the confidence and control your Jeep should have.
Brake Repairs
Jeeps are heavy vehicles, and they’re often driven hard. We replace—not resurface—rotors and use high-quality pads and hardware to ensure safe, dependable stopping power, whether you’re on pavement or trail.
Drivetrain & 4WD Services
From transfer case leaks to failing wheel bearings, we handle all the components that make your Jeep a capable 4×4. We’ll keep your drivetrain tight, responsive, and trail-ready.
Engine & Timing Work
Timing chain rattle? Camshaft noise? We see these regularly on Jeep engines and perform precise, thorough repairs using quality parts and proven procedures.
Electrical Diagnostics
Whether it’s a warning light or an intermittent issue, we use advanced scan tools and deep experience to get to the root of electrical problems—no guesswork involved.
Transmission Replacement
If your Jeep is shifting roughly, slipping gears, or showing signs of failure, we install high-quality replacement transmissions and calibrate them correctly. (Note: we do not rebuild transmissions in-house.
Preventative Maintenance
We help Jeep owners stay ahead of major issues with routine services like oil changes (we use Castrol), BG fluid exchanges, and regular inspections. Preventative care is the key to a long, Jeep life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Jeep Service in Seekonk, MA
Q1: What is the Jeep death wobble—and how do you fix it?
A: The “death wobble” is a violent, uncontrollable front-end shake that usually occurs at highway speeds. It’s typically caused by worn or loose components in your suspension or steering system—like track bar bushings, tie rods, or ball joints. At Trustworthy Auto, we don’t guess. We perform a thorough suspension and steering inspection to identify the root cause and make lasting repairs that stop the wobble for good.
Q2: How often should I service my Jeep’s 4WD system?
A: We recommend servicing your Jeep’s 4×4 system at least once a year—or more often if you regularly off-road or drive in harsh New England winters. This includes checking and replacing transfer case and differential fluids, inspecting driveshafts, and ensuring your 4WD components are operating smoothly.
Q3: Why does my Jeep feel unstable or wander on the road?
A: A Jeep that feels loose, pulls to one side, or wanders may be dealing with worn bushings, alignment issues, or unbalanced tires. Lifted or off-road-driven Jeeps are especially prone to these problems. At Trustworthy Auto, we use high-precision alignment equipment and diagnostic tools to restore safe, stable handling.
Q4: Is it normal for my Jeep to clunk or bang when shifting into gear?
A: No—any clunking or banging sounds when shifting gears can signal drivetrain wear, bad u-joints, worn transmission mounts, or internal damage. Our ASE-certified techs will track down the exact source and provide a reliable repair plan before it leads to costlier problems.
Q5: Do you work on older Jeeps like the CJ or Commander?
A: Absolutely. From vintage Jeep CJ models to the discontinued Commander, we service all generations. Whether your Jeep is carbureted or runs on modern electronics, our team has the expertise, tools, and training to keep it running strong.
