Maintenance Schedules - NAFTA - SRT 6.2L And 6.4L
The Scheduled Maintenance services listed in this service information must be done at the times or mileages specified to protect your vehicle warranty and ensure the best vehicle performance and reliability. More frequent maintenance may be needed for vehicles in severe operating conditions, such as dusty areas and very short trip driving. Inspection and service should also be done anytime a malfunction is suspected. The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance. A "Oil Change Required" message will be displayed in the DID and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil change is necessary. Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will illuminate. This means that service is required for your vehicle. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
The oil change indicator message will not monitor the time since the last oil change. Change your vehicle's oil if it has been six months since your last oil change, even if the oil change indicator message is NOT illuminated.
Change your engine oil more often if you drive your vehicle off-road/track usage for an extended period of time.
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 6, 000 miles (10, 000 km) or six months, whichever comes first.
To reset the oil change indicator system, refer to CENTER, ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION, STANDARD PROCEDURE .
