What the service covers on a Ram Dakota

An oil change begins with draining the used engine oil and refilling the engine with the oil grade and capacity specified by the manufacturer for the applicable Ram Dakota model year. The service also includes a new oil filter, which helps support clean oil circulation through the engine. After the oil and filter are replaced, the oil life monitor is reset so the vehicle’s maintenance tracking reflects the completed visit. Underhood fluid levels are checked as part of the service as well.

Engine oil can lose its additive package and its ability to carry heat and debris before it looks dirty. That is why the maintenance schedule is based on mileage and time rather than appearance alone. Drivers may notice an oil-change reminder light, mileage beyond the last service, dark or low oil on the dipstick, or a ticking or louder engine note at startup. Drivers can schedule service at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Avondale for the Ram Dakota.
