SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
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 indi-
cator message will illuminate. This means that service is
required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as
frequent short-trips, trailer towing, and extremely hot or
cold ambient temperatures will influence when the
“Change Oil” or “Oil Change Required” message is dis-
played. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible,
within the next 500 miles (805 km).
On vehicles equipped with an instrument cluster display,
“Oil Change Required” will be displayed and a single
chime will sound, indicating that an oil change is
necessary.
On non-instrument cluster display equipped vehicles,
“Change Oil” will flash in the instrument cluster odom-
eter and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil
change is necessary.
NOTE:
PHEV (If Equipped):
Even though the vehicle may not
have been driven, both the fuel in the tank and oil in
the engine will still degrade over time. Additionally,
there will be a notification to the driver if the engine is
being run to maintain the oil and fuel systems.
An 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 an authorized dealer, the message can be reset by
referring to the steps described under Instrument Clus-
ter Display
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals
exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), 12 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 the engine oil level.
•
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
•
Check the tire inflation pressures and look for
unusual wear or damage, rotate at the first sign of
irregular wear.
•
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake
master cylinder, and power steering, and fill as
needed.
•
Check the function of all interior and exterior lights.
MAINTENANCE PLAN
Refer to the maintenance plan for the required maintenance intervals.
At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil Change Indicator System
•
Change oil and filter.
•
Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
•
Inspect 12 Volt battery and clean and tighten terminals as required.
•
Inspect the CV/Universal joints.
