SCHEDULED SERVICING —
NON-SRT
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil
change indicator system. The oil change indica-
tor 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, and E85 fuel usage will influ-
ence 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 (800 km).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change
indicator message after completing the sched-
uled oil change.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change in-
tervals 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.
Severe Duty All Models
Change Engine Oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km)
or 350 hours of engine run time if the vehicle is
operated in a dusty and off road environment or
is operated predominately at idle or only very
low engine RPM’s. This type of vehicle use is
considered Severe Duty.
