Keeping your Dodge driving in the best shape possible requires routine maintenance. Here at our Dodge dealership in Jacksonville, FL, we know the ins and outs of your vehicle and what needs to be done to keep it running smoothly for years to come. When you bring your car in for Dodge service, which should average around every 7,500 miles or at least once a year, what can you expect? 1. Multi-Point Inspection Your vehicle will receive a thorough inspection by a factory-trained service technician. Our Service Department can check: more Fluid levels Lights Brakes Belts Hoses Air filters Emissions Tire pressure Seat belts Shocks Struts Chassis components A status report will identify any issues that need to be addressed. This means you can keep tabs on your car's health and take care of any issues before they potentially become a bigger problem, saving you time and money in the long run. 2. Oil Change and More Oil can get contaminated and degrade over time. The motor oil lubricates engine parts to ensure that your Dodge runs smoothly, and during your routine Dodge service, we can change the oil in your car or SUV. In addition to an oil change, we can do an overall look at all other fluid levels, including: Windshield washer fluid Brake fluid Engine coolant Power steering fluid If anything needs changing, or just a top off, we can take care of it. 3. Electronics Check Most modern vehicles are equipped with numerous computers and electronic components that require a technician's attention if they report any issues or if they fail. Service technicians will complete a thorough performance check of these parts, and they'll also monitor other integrated electronic systems and sensors. 4. Cosmetic Review Your technician will perform a visual inspection of your car, from the roof to the undercarriage, bumpers, mirrors, windows, and more, to make sure everything is in good working order and operating correctly. If the technician finds anything that needs addressing, it will get discussed with you so you can make an informed decision on how to proceed. These may be minor flaws that don’t often get detected, such as a small crack in your windshield or mirror that you didn't notice. 5. Battery Health Keeping your battery in good condition will save you headaches in the long run. The life of your battery will depend on the type of vehicle and the type of battery you have, and we know the last thing you want is to find yourself with a car battery that doesn’t work. Your technician will give you an overview of your battery's condition and recommend when you should replace it with a new one.
