4 - Vehicle Quick Reference/Maintenance Schedules/Description
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - LATIN AMERICA - DIESEL
To help you have the best driving experience possible, the manufacturer has identified the specific vehicle
maintenance service intervals that are required to keep your vehicle operating properly and safely.
The manufacturer recommends that these maintenance intervals be performed at your selling dealer. The
technicians at your dealership know your vehicle best, and have access to factory trained information, genuine
MOPAR® parts, and specially designed electronic and mechanical tools that can help prevent future costly
repairs.
The maintenance intervals shown should be performed as indicated in this section.
At Each Stop for Fuel
Check the engine oil level about 15 minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level
while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the
level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
Check the windshield washer solvent and add if required.
Once a Month
Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage.
Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the terminals as required.
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, and power steering and add as
needed.
Check all lights and other electrical items for correct operation.
At Each Oil Change
Change the engine oil filter.
Inspect the brake hoses and lines.
Inspect for the presence of water in the fuel filter/water separator unit.
OIL CHANGE INDICATOR - RESET
The vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system. The “Oil Change Required” message will
flash in the EVIC display for approximately 10 seconds after a single chime has sounded to indicate the next
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 12,500 miles (20 000 km) or 12
months, whichever comes first.
NOTE:
Flush and replace the engine coolant at 120 months or 150,000 miles (240,000 km) whichever comes
first
CAUTION:
Failure to perform the required maintenance items may result in damage to the
vehicle.
Proper operation of four-wheel drive vehicles depends on tires of equal size, type and
circumference on each wheel. Any difference in tire size can cause damage to the
transfer case. Tire rotation schedule should be followed to balance tire wear.
