Keep your vehicle in great shape between major service appointments by ensuing you have enough of the important fluids your car needs to drive well. When you need to have your fluid levels checked or topped off, you can count on the service department at Champion Chrysler Jeep® Dodge. Let’s look at some fluids you need to pay attention to for your Chrysler car.
Oil
Your engine requires oil to keep the moving parts lubricated. It’s easy to check you oil on your own, but you can always bring in into you local Chrysler service center. If low, oil will need to be added until it’s time for your next oil change. According to AAA, most cars need an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.
Radiator Fluid
The radiator fluid works to keep your engine from overheating. If you run low, you risk overheating your car and being stranded. Always make sure this fluid is where it should be to avoid costly breakdowns.
Transmission Fluid
Transmission fluid keeps your transmission lubricated. This is necessary to prevent expensive issues from developing. Not only does the amount of fluid need to be checked, but the quality should as well. If it’s pinkish or clear it’s good. If it smells burnt or has debris in it, it’s time for a change.
Power Steering Fluid
Power steering fluid lubricates power steering and makes it easier to control the car’s wheels. Thus, it is critical for a smooth drive. You don’t want to run low on this and have handling problems.
