MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
For information on the maintenance procedures for your vehicle, please refer to “Dealer Service”
in “Servicing And Maintenance” in your Owner’s Manual on www.chrysler.com/en/
owners/manuals or in an applicable supplement for further details.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator system. The oil change indicator
system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will illuminate. This
means that service is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as frequent short-trips,
trailer tow, extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures will influence when the “Oil Change
Required” message is displayed. Severe Operating Conditions can cause the change oil message
to illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset. Have your vehicle serviced as soon
as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the scheduled
oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than your authorized dealer,
the message can be reset by referring to “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” located in the Owner’s Manual on www.chrysler.com/en/owners/manuals.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), twelve
months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first. The 350 hours of engine run or
idle time is generally only a concern for fleet customers.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
• Check engine oil level.
• Check windshield washer fluid level.
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of
irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir and brake master cylinder, fill as needed.
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights.
