How do I properly maintain the transmission on my Ford Kuga?

I just purchased a Ford Kuga and want to make sure I am properly maintaining the transmission. What steps should I take to ensure the longevity and performance of my transmission?

Regularly check the transmission fluid levels and change it as recommended in the owner's manual. An annual transmission fluid flush is also recommended to remove any debris that may have accumulated.

Avoid excessive and aggressive driving that can put unnecessary strain on the transmission. This includes hard accelerations, sudden braking, and towing heavy loads.

If you notice any unusual noises or vibrations coming from the transmission, bring your car to a trusted mechanic for inspection and potential repairs.
