Schedule an appointment today
When you own a Jeep, there is a lot more that goes into this vehicle than simply hitting the trails and never looking back. You also need to make sure that you are taking good care of it at every turn and juncture. That's why, here at Charlie's Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram, we want to bring you a possible maintenance schedule that you might want to potentially follow. The one thing we really need you to remember is that this maintenance schedule will vary for everyone, especially with factors like how often you drive your Jeep, where you use it, your own driving style, and the mileage that it obtains along the way. This is simply an estimate on when the average person would likely need to keep up with a schedule. Either way, Charlie's Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram has a reliable service center that will be able to help you out!
3 months/3,000 miles
The most common maintenance that you will need to have performed on your Jeep is the kind that should be done at least four times a year. As we stated previously, this is something that is always going to depend specifically on your own driving habits. What we can say is that fluid checks are vital, and while they don't need to be done every single month, they should be done with frequency. Make sure you spend time looking at fluid that can be found with the transmission, power steering, brakes, coolant, windshield washer, and engine oil. Beyond fluid levels, you should also have the tire pressure monitored, hoses inspected, belts checked out, and both the interior and exterior cleaned. We can help you out in any of these areas!
6 months/5,000 miles
Now that a few more months have passed, along with the more common maintenance, these are the sorts of things that should be checked/changed twice a year. The first thing we want to note is an oil and filter change, which is absolutely vital to the overall functioning of your Jeep's engine. We also highly suggest things like a tire rotation, a light check, changing cabin air filters, testing the car battery, and switching out your wiper blades if you notice that they aren't working quite as well as they have in the previous months.
12 months/10,000 miles
The last major maintenance that we want to remind you about is the kind that should be happening yearly. While this is obviously going to vary depending on the person and vehicle, this is usually the perfect time for a wheel alignment. You will also want to have your Jeep's brakes looked at by a professional at our service center. And, should your Jeep run on synthetic oil, around 10,000 miles is usually when it should be changed out.
