Chrysler Service Center FAQs

When they make an appointment to bring their cars to our Chrysler service center, many drivers realize they have questions about a specific service or auto service in general. We’re always happy to answer any service-related questions you might have.
Over the years, we’ve answered some questions more often than others. We invite you to reach out to our Jefferson, WI car dealership if you don’t see your specific inquiry on our list of service FAQs.

How Important is Routine Maintenance?

No matter what kind of vehicle you have, routine maintenance will be critical to keeping your automobile in good shape. Following your car’s routine maintenance schedule is the most effective thing you can do to preserve your vehicle’s resale value, extend its working life, and keep your cumulative service costs as low as possible.

Is Routine Maintenance the Same Across Makes and Models?

While certain recommendations may vary between makes and models, all vehicles need to have some routine maintenance tasks performed regularly. Getting your oil changed and having your tires rotated are two of the things you’ll probably have to schedule several times each year you own your automobile.

Do New Cars Need Maintenance?

All the vehicles in our new car inventory will need maintenance throughout their lives. Whether you get a Chrysler Pacifica, a RAM truck, a Jeep® Wrangler, or a Dodge Challenger, your ride will require routine maintenance if you want it to work as efficiently as it’s supposed to work.

Where Do You Get the Parts You Use to Make Repairs?

We source the components used to make repairs and complete routine maintenance tasks from our Chrysler parts department.

How Often Do I Need to Have My Oil Changed?

In years past, the rule of thumb was to get your oil changed every three months or 3,000 miles. Today, a lot of vehicles can go longer and farther between oil changes. It’s wise to check your owner’s manual to see when you’ll need an oil change in the contexts of mileage and the passage of time.

What Should I Do if My Check Engine Light Comes on?

If the light is static, you should bring your vehicle to our Chrysler service center as soon as you can. Is the light flashing? If your check engine light is flashing, you need to bring your car to our location immediately.
