How can I extend the life of my brakes? The way you drive will make a significant impact on the life of your brakes. Avoid having to make hard stops by maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles and coasting to a stop when possible. Pay attention to any unusual noises or vibrations when braking and get them checked out—early intervention can avoid costly repairs.

How do I know when my brakes need to be replaced? By the time you notice the most obvious signs of brake wear, such as squealing or grinding noises when you brake, juddering or longer stopping distances, it may be too late for an easy fix. Regularly inspect your brakes, paying attention to the thickness of your brake pads and to any indicator lights on your dashboard. Also, you should make note of the recommended service intervals for your brakes and take your vehicle in for regular maintenance.

What causes my brakes to overheat? The friction from braking results in heat. When you brake aggressively or hold down the brake for a long time (such as when going downhill with a heavy load), it can put a lot of pressure on your braking system and can even “glaze” your brake pads by wearing them down to the point that they have trouble generating enough friction to stop. You can avoid overheating your brakes by driving more cautiously, downshifting instead of pressing the brakes to slow your vehicle and by staying on top of regular maintenance of your brakes.

How to Extend the Life of Your Battery

The average battery will last three to five years, but you can ensure that your battery’s lifespan will be in the higher end of that range with these tips.

  • Clean Your Battery
  • Limit Heat Exposure
  • Avoid Short Trips
  • Clamp Your Batteries
  • Turn Off Extra Features
  • Test Your Battery

How do I choose the right battery for my vehicle?Generally, a battery provided by your vehicle manufacturer or an original equipment manufacturer will be specifically designed for your vehicle, ensuring a seamless replacement. Mopar® stocks batteries for current-model FCA US LLC vehicles, so you can find the right one for your needs.

How do I recharge the battery? If your battery has no charge at all, you can use a battery charger to recharge it. Check the instructions on your charger and make sure that your vehicle and the charger are off before connecting any cables.

How do I know when my battery needs to be replaced? Look for signs that your battery may be nearing the end of its life, like electrical issues, a slow-starting engine or a check engine light on your display. When examining the battery directly, look for corrosion on the terminals, a sulfurous smell that could indicate leakage or a bloated or swollen battery case.

    Was given an application to run my credit. I applied for it within the hour in the morning. I texted the next day asking for an update and they tell me "it sold last night at 7pm. No call, no text, no consideration for someone that had ALREADY STARTED THE BUYING PROCESS. Their only defense was "we didn't run your credit". | Read Full Review

    I have never been more insulted when dealing with a car dealer like I was today with this dealership. I reached out to them to price a new truck.

    The worst experience I've had with a dealership. Brought my truck in for some warranty work and got every excuse why they couldn't fix it. First they told me it wasn't covered and wanted to charge me a huge fee then told they couldn't fix it because the warranty was only good at the dealer I bought it at. Wouldn't recommend this deal | Read Full Review

    The service department is excellent and helped me get my screen replaced by working with US Customer Care. I was experiencing major issues with delamination on my 2018 Ram 2500. They diagnosed quickly and had my screen ordered and replaced the following week. Very happy with the quick turn around and making this a smooth process. | Read Full Review
