How does an oil change benefit my vehicle?
Fresh oil reduces engine friction, prevents overheating, and protects critical components, helping your engine last longer and perform better.
What’s the recommended oil change interval for my Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM?
Most vehicles require an oil change every 12 months or 7,500–10,000 miles, although this interval varies by model and driving conditions. Our team can recommend the ideal schedule based on your owner’s manual and driving habits.
What’s included in your oil change service?
We replace your oil with Mopar-approved products, install a new filter, check and top off fluids (including brake and coolant), inspect belts and wiper blades, and perform a multi-point vehicle check for added peace of mind.
Why should I choose Mopar® oils for my vehicle?
Mopar® oils meet strict manufacturer standards, ensuring optimal engine performance and preserving your warranty. Non-approved oils may compromise efficiency or coverage.
Are oil changes for diesel engines different from those for gasoline engines?
Yes, diesel engines, like those in RAM trucks, require specialized oils and filters. Our technicians are trained to handle diesel-specific needs with precision and expertise.
What other maintenance is performed during an oil change?
We check tire pressure, inspect fluid levels (including transmission, power steering, and coolant), and clean your vehicle’s interior and exterior windows for a refreshed look.
How can I tell if my vehicle needs an oil change?
Watch for signs like a check engine light, louder engine sounds, or dark, gritty oil on the dipstick. Schedule a visit if you notice these or it’s been over a year since your last service.
What happens if I skip an oil change?
Old oil can cause engine sludge, increased wear, or even damage. Prompt service at Franklin CDJR helps avoid costly repairs and keeps your vehicle reliable.
Do you offer different oil types to meet various needs?
Absolutely! We offer a range of oils, including conventional, synthetic, semi-synthetic, and high-mileage options, tailored to your vehicle’s engine and driving conditions.
Is it better to get an oil change at the dealership than doing it myself?
Our service center uses Mopar®-certified products and expert technicians to ensure quality and maintain your warranty. DIY changes risk using incorrect oils or filters, which can affect performance.
