First Look at the 2020 Jeep® Grand Cherokee
At Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM of Avenel, NJ, we believe a great used and new car dealer should do more than just sell great cars, they should also have their finger on the pulse of the latest in automotive news. So, in that effort, we’re excited to share our first look at the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, expected to hit showroom floors in the Fall of 2019.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee has always been the largest and most robust of the Jeep family lineup. As other SUVs from other manufacturers have become smaller and smaller, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has continued offering the truest SUV driving experience, and the 2020 model is expected to be no different.
The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee sits at the top of the 2020 lineup, as a true powerhouse. The standard model is expected to come with a 293 horsepower 3.6-liter V6 engine which is already one of the most powerful engines out of the Jeep SUV family. That said, this roaring V6 can be bumped up to a 6.4-liter V8 engine which provides a significant boost to performance offering up 707 horsepower and 645 lb-ft worth of torque. So, yes, that means the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee is going to be a champion of towing and this powerful SUV is expected to have a towing capacity nearing 7,200 lb.
The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee is going to be more than just a powerhouse, it is also going to be equipped with the latest in automotive safety and self-driving technology. The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee will be able to change lanes, accelerate, and steer automatically thanks to a suite of cutting-edge automotive technology.
While you may have to wait a little while for the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee to enter our dealership, you can test drive the plethora of other new Jeep models that we offer at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM.
Summer Car Care Tips
Here at Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM, we believe that no driver should handle maintenance on their own. Whether you’re behind the wheel of a new Dodge car or have been driving the same Jeep SUV for years, our service team is here for you to ensure you continue driving safely, efficiently, and optimally.
Of all the seasons to be concerned about car maintenance, summer is possibly the most important. With summer comes heat, which can put quite a lot of strain on your vehicle. While engines typically run hot, they have a limit to the amount of high-temperature they can withstand.
Fortunately, your vehicle’s cooling system counteracts this rising heat. However, it too has a breaking point. So, we recommend that drivers do the proper maintenance in order to ensure all components are operating at peak capacity.
For example, replacing your air filters before summer can ensure that your engine continues to get clean cool air, which can allow it to better regulate engine temperature. We also recommend that drivers keep a careful eye on their engine coolant levels. If your coolant is running low we also suggest that you only add more once your engine is completely cooled as the remaining coolant can become pressurized and can risk severely burning you. Lastly, we urge drivers to have their air conditioning inspected before the summer season sets in full. Summers in and around Avenel, NJ can get pretty sweltering, and having a working AC can do wonders for your drive.
No matter what the time of year may be, our Chrysler, Jeep, RAM and Dodge service team is here for your every maintenance need. At Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM we strive to be your one-stop-automotive-shop and work tirelessly to ensure your car continues running smoothly all year long.
What to Look for in Adventure-Ready Vehicles
If you’re looking for a team of used or new car dealers that has your best interest in mind, you certainly won’t be disappointed by Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM. We pride ourselves in customer service excellence and will go the extra mile to help you find a vehicle that matches your lifestyle perfectly.
We understand that every driver is different, and drivers who can’t get enough of adventure and the outdoors tend to want a vehicle that is up for a task. These are vehicles that are durable, rugged, and versatile both on and off the pavement. When helping these kinds of drivers find the vehicle of their dreams, there are certain characteristics that we look out for.
One is fuel efficiency. An adventure-ready car should be able to sip gas for those long-distance road trips and grand adventures into the wilderness. At the same time, we also seek vehicles that are rugged and ready for anything. These kinds of vehicles are tooled with an AWD or 4WD drivetrain and can handle both dirt and pavement with ease. We also keep an eye out for SUVs and trucks. These kinds of vehicles offer just the right amount of utility and provide extra room for both gear and passengers.
Of all the vehicles that we offer at our dealership, the 2019 Jeep Renegade best fits this idea of a perfect adventure-ready vehicle. Earning 24 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway, this Jeep SUV is certainly fuel efficient. Certain trim options of the Jeep Renegade also offer a 4×4 drivetrain and is equipped with Jeep’s famous off-road system. Lastly, the Jeep Renegade is compact-SUV offering plenty of leg and cargo room.
If you’re looking to test drive the latest Jeep Renegade or any of our other Chrysler, Dodge, RAM, or Jeep models, our team can set you up with a test drive. At Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM, we believe the best way to know whether a car is right for you is to sit behind the wheel.
Top Safety Features in FCA US LCC Vehicles
If you’re looking to purchase a vehicle, you should receive guidance from an NJ Jeep® dealer that has your best interest in mind; and you can find just that at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM. We understand all the factors that go into car buying, and safety should be at the top of your priority list.
The term ‘automotive safety’ has changed a lot over the years. In the past, automotive safety included features that protect drivers and passengers in the event of a crash. These included things like seatbelts and airbags, things we take for granted today. However, that has shifted dramatically, and the FCA US LLC lineup exists at the bleeding edge of this safety tech revolution.
One top modern safety feature found in our fleet of vehicles is blind-spot monitoring. Blind-spot monitoring uses sensors to alert drivers when other vehicles enter either blind spot area to provide greater awareness while on the road.
Adaptive cruise control is another innovative smart safety feature that is drastically changing the way we drive for the better. Adaptive cruise control automatically adjusts your set speed in correlation to the speed of the vehicle in front of you. This smart safety feature works by scanning the road ahead of the vehicle using a complex array of cameras and sensors.
Lastly, lane departure warning makes the dangerous risk of lane drift a thing of the past. Lane departure warning provides clear alerts when you’ve drifted out of the lane, and it can automatically guide you safely back into your lane should you fail to take action.
You can find these incredible safety features and many more in the wide variety of 2019 Dodge, RAM, Jeep, and Chrysler models in our showroom. When you visit Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM for a test drive, our team will give you a comprehensive breakdown of how these safety system work, and how they’ll protect you on the road.
Everything You Need to Know About Oil Changes
There is nothing quite like visiting a car dealership that has your best interests in mind, and fortunately, you can find just that at Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM. We’re a dealership that prides itself in customer service excellence, and that means more than just helping you find a brand new car, it also includes regular servicing.
Our team at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM understand that a lot goes into automotive maintenance. However, we believe one of the most important forms of maintenance is regular oil changes. By changing your motor oil on a regular basis you can avoid the short-term repercussions of hindering the performance of your engine and the long term consequences of inflicting direct damage to your engine’s components. To avoid this, our car care professionals recommend that you change your motor oil out once every 3,000 miles. However, before you change your oil, it is important to know which type of motor oil you need.
There are four types of motor oil to choose from, full synthetic, synthetic blend, conventional and high mileage oil. Full synthetic oil works best in high mileage vehicles and performance cars. This grade of oil provides incredible lubrication, however, can be quite costly. Synthetic blend offers a cheaper alternative to full synthetic. While not as effective, synthetic blend is still a great choice for drivers who want something above the standard. Conventional oil is the most commonly used kind of motor oil and should be used in vehicles with a low to mid-range odometer reading. High mileage motor oil is typically only used in vehicles with 75,000 miles or higher. High mileage oil is used to reduce smog emissions and prevent oil leaks.
So, which oil type is right for you? Well, our Jeep, Dodge, RAM, and Chrysler service team can inspect your vehicle and select the type of oil that best fits your engine. At Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM, your complete satisfaction is our number one goal.
At Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM, we believe that part of being a leading car dealership serving Woodbridge, NJ involves treating our customers more like family than a part of the business. As a result, we promise comprehensive auto services, and we are always excited to share with you any worthwhile nugget of automotive news or info, and lately, there have been plenty.
Jeep has earned a reputation of being a manufacturer that specializes in designing trucks and SUVs that are intended to be sturdy, comfortable, and in some cases, ready for even the roughest of wilderness trails. That said, Jeep has steadily been expanding its brand, adding lineup changes like fulfilling the promise of a new Jeep pickup.
One of the many new model years in the lineup is the Jeep Renegade, a small SUV that drips with character. Jeep recently announced a changeup to the Jeep Renegade coming 2020, and it involves a plug-in hybrid trim option. The new plug-in hybrid Jeep Renegade will join a whole lineup of electric SUVs, including even the possibility of an electric Jeep Wrangler. The plug-in version of the 2020 Jeep Renegade is expected to be able to run for 30 miles on pure electricity, which is quite the gamechanger.
The idea of a plug-in Jeep changes what we’ve come to expect from Jeep. While the plug-in 2020 Jeep Renegade is still a ways off from hitting the market, you can test drive the 2019 iteration and many other new Jeep models at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM. Our team will show you firsthand everything this prolific manufacturer has to offer, and why the Jeep SUV continues to be one of the best on the market.
How to Get Your Vehicle Road-Trip Ready
There are many car dealerships out there, but there is only one Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM. Our team auto experts pride themselves in providing top-notch services, and will do more than just walk you through the car buying process, they’ll also share their extensive breadth of automotive expertise.
One of our favorite topics of discussion is road tripping. To us, there is no greater way to experience travel than from the front seat of your car. That said, long road trips can put plenty of wear and tear on your vehicle, and if you’re not careful could find yourself stranded on the side of the road in a completely unfamiliar place. For this reason, we highly recommend a bit of pre-road trip maintenance.
One of the most important components to service before embarking on your next trek is your tires. Your tires support the weight of your vehicle and like all other car components undergo some serious wear and tear in the long-term. By swapping out your tires when tread levels are low, you can avoid finding yourself stuck on the side of the road changing a flat.
We also recommend that you inspect your motor oil before taking off on your next road-trip adventure. Motor oil is a lubricant that keeps all of the components of your vehicle moving smoothly and can prevent more serious technical issues. Although over time, this motor oil can develop grime build up. By swapping out your motor oil every 3 months or 3,000 miles, you can keep on hitting the pavement to your destination.
And most of all, we recommend that every driver visit our top-notch Jeep service center. At Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM, our service team will inspect your vehicle from trunk to hood to get you ready for your next adventure.

Budgeting Tips for Buying a New Car
No matter what your automotive needs may be, our team at Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM is ready and willing to satisfy all of them. We are an NJ car dealership that is driven by customer satisfaction and dedicated to providing the best car buying experience possible. We also understand that budgeting for and financing a new vehicle can be somewhat complicated, which is why we are here to help.
A lot goes into purchasing a new car, truck, or SUV. From finding the vehicle that fits your needs to going on a test drive, there is a variety of steps that you’ll make along the way to complete car ownership. That said, the process of figuring out the finances is possibly one of the most intimidating parts of the car buying experience for our customers. But, that’s not the case when you work with us.
When customers visit our local Jeep dealership, we often recommend that they first determine what is likely to fit their budget. By determining what you can afford first, you have a better grasp of the whole financial discussion later down the line. When you purchase a car, chances are that you’ll need to finance for an auto loan.
Auto loans can seem daunting at first, but they are a great route for vehicle ownership. When you apply for an auto loan, we often recommend that you present a down payment that is at least 20% of the total value of the car. By doing this, you can set yourself up for lower monthly payments, and you have the chance of paying off the vehicle sooner. Experts also say that a monthly car payment shouldn’t be more than 15% of your gross pay or 20% of your take-home pay.
If a new vehicle isn’t in your budget, don’t worry! We offer a fine selection of pre-owned and certified pre-owned models here at our dealership as well.
Regardless if you’re hoping to purchase a new RAM pickup or a certified pre-owned Jeep, our team at Sansone Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM is here to help. We’ll walk you through every step of the process and help you find the vehicle of your dreams.
