Jeep® Service Tasks to Prepare for a Summer Road Trip

There are lots of factors to consider when it comes to a Jeep® oil change at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM. The type of oil you use is one of them. We’re diving into all the details of synthetic oil to help you determine if it’s right for you. more What’s Synthetic Oil Made From? At its base, synthetic oil is typically a crude oil. However, it contains artificially made chemical components, such as petroleum components, to help enhance its quality. These additives can vary, depending on the manufacturer. How Often Do You Change It? Keeping your engine clean is one of synthetic oil’s primary purposes, although that makes it dirty as it collects contaminants. So, even though it is better quality than conventional oil, you still have to change it routinely, though not as frequently. On average, it will need to be replaced every 10,000 to 15,000 miles. We suggest that you check your owner’s manual for a specific guideline. Do I Need Synthetic Oil? Synthetic oil was originally recommended for high-performance vehicles to provide better protection for their engines. However, many drivers opt to utilize synthetic oil because of all of its benefits. Synthetic oil is typically recommended for Jeep SUVs, depending on their age and condition. What are the Perks? Conventional oil is typically thin at high temperatures, but synthetic oil’s additives help to keep it thick, no matter what. This provides better protection for your engine and limits wear. Plus, since it’s less likely to oxidize, acidify, or break down, it doesn’t need to be replaced as often as conventional oil.

When it comes to Jeep® service, every vehicle has a recommended schedule. However, many drivers don’t realize just how important that schedule can be. We’re outlining a few of the issues that could arise if you skip service at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM. more Excessive Wear and Tear Most maintenance tasks are designed to prevent wear and tear. Your engine oil lubricates your engine, limiting friction and engine damage. If you don’t change your oil regularly, it will lose its efficiency and won’t protect your engine the way it is intended to. Eventually, this could cause engine damage. Poor Performance The inner workings of your vehicle are complex. Maintenance is required to keep them fine-tuned and working effectively. If you skip maintenance, your vehicle may struggle to accelerate, and you’ll notice your vehicle’s overall performance start to suffer. Increased Fuel Consumption There are lots of potential consequences of missing maintenance appointments including uneven wear on your tires and aged oil, which strains your engine, making it work harder than necessary. This also makes your vehicle consume more fuel, lowering your vehicle’s efficiency.

Make sure that you run through the carwash and rid your vehicle of any leftover winter remains. 2.      Rotate Your Tires When our technicians rotate your tires, this prevents your tires from wearing unevenly and helps prolong your tires’ lifespan. It also keeps you from being left stranded with a flat. 3.      Inspect Your Tire Tread Ideally, your tires will have at least 4/32 of an inch of tread to give you adequate grip on the road. Once they’ve become too bald, you run the risk of losing control when you drive. For your safety, contact us to replace your tires if your tread isn’t deep enough. 4.      Change Your Windshield Wiper Blades Harsh winters can leave your windshield wipers brittle. Our team can replace your windshield wiper blades so that they can still clear your windshield in a pinch. We will also make sure to top off your windshield wiper fluid as well so you can clean dirt and debris off your windshield. 5.      Change Your Oil Keeping up with your oil change schedule?
