The most common causes are:
• Road salt, dirt and moisture accumulation.
• Stone and gravel impact.
• Insects, tree sap and tar.
• Salt in the air near seacoast localities.
• Atmospheric fallout/industrial pollutants.
Washing
• Wash your vehicle regularly. Always wash
your vehicle in the shade using MOPAR姞 Car
Wash, or a mild car wash soap, and rinse the
panels completely with clear water.
• If insects, tar, or other similar deposits have
accumulated on your vehicle, use MOPAR姞
Super Kleen Bug and Tar Remover to
remove.
• Use a high quality cleaner wax, such as
MOPAR姞 Cleaner Wax to remove road film,
stains and to protect your paint finish. Take
care never to scratch the paint.
• Avoid using abrasive compounds and power
buffing that may diminish the gloss or thin out
the paint finish.
CAUTION!
• Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning
materials such as steel wool or scouring
powder that will scratch metal and painted
surfaces.
• Use of power washers exceeding
1,200 psi (8 274 kPa) can result in damage
or removal of paint and decals.
Special Care
• If you drive on salted or dusty roads or if you
drive near the ocean, hose off the undercar-
riage at least once a month.
• It is important that the drain holes in the lower
edges of the doors, rocker panels, and trunk
be kept clear and open.
• If you detect any stone chips or scratches in
the paint, touch them up immediately. The
cost of such repairs is considered the re-
sponsibility of the owner.
• If your vehicle is damaged due to a collision
or similar cause that destroys the paint and
protective coating, have your vehicle re-
paired as soon as possible. The cost of such
repairs is considered the responsibility of the
owner.
• If you carry special cargo such as chemicals,
fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., be sure that such
materials are well packaged and sealed.
• If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads,
consider mud or stone shields behind each
wheel.
• Use MOPAR姞 Touch Up Paint on scratches
as soon as possible. Your authorized dealer
has touch up paint to match the color of your
vehicle.
Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
• All wheels and wheel trim, especially alumi-
num and chrome plated wheels, should be
cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water
to prevent corrosion.
• To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake
dust, use MOPAR姞 Wheel Cleaner.
