Your RAM is designed to tackle tough terrains and heavy loads, but to keep it performing at its best, the transmission must be in top shape. This complex, hard-working component transmits enormous power to the wheels, requiring proper lubrication and treatment. A combination of appropriate driving habits and routine transmission service at your RAM dealer can ensure optimal performance and longevity for your gearbox. A Guide to Effective Transmission Care for Your RAM Use High-Quality Transmission Fluid The transmission fluid lubricates many moving parts while also maintaining hydraulic pressure inside the transmission. On top of this, the fluid cleans, protects against corrosion, and dissipates heat. However, not all transmission fluids are created equal. Check for the recommended fluid in your owner's manual; a trusted technician can also offer guidance on which fluid is ideal for your truck. Check Your Transmission Fluid Frequently Keep a close eye on your transmission fluids with regular checks. If it diminishes, top it up. If it begins to thicken, degrade, and burn, flush and replace it. To minimize the risk of deterioration, it's safest to flush transmission fluid every two years or 30,000 miles, although modern fluid can last much longer than this. more Respond Promptly to Signs of Gearbox Trouble Never hesitate to have your transmission inspected if you notice problems when shifting gears. RAM transmissions are smooth and responsive when healthy, so any strange sounds, vibrations, delays, or refusals to shift properly shouldn't be ignored. Often, the fault lies with the transmission fluid, but you might occasionally have a more serious malfunction to deal with. And if you find a puddle of red fluid under your truck, you may have a transmission fluid leak, which will need to be fixed at once. Avoid Hard Acceleration and Braking Your daily driving habits impact how long your transmission will last in good shape. Avoid aggressive driving with overuse of the gas and brake pedal. Both fast accelerating and hard braking strain the transmission, causing unnecessary wear and tear. Allow Your Truck to Warm Up Before Driving Another bad habit is starting the engine and then taking off at once. This doesn't give the motor oil and transmission fluid time to reach optimal lubricating temperature. Instead, give your truck a few minutes to warm up before you drive, especially during winter. Your engine and gearbox will thank you for it. Arrange Routine Transmission Service at Your RAM Dealer Periodically bring your truck in for servicing at your local dealership.

Whether you're towing, hauling, or commuting to work, gas mileage plays a big role in your RAM's overall performance. The following RAM fuel efficiency tips will save you money on monthly fuel costs, reducing overheads and boosting your finances. Each tip on its own is valuable, but when you start compounding them, the cumulative benefits can be remarkable. 7 Fuel Efficiency Tips for RAM Owners Keep Your Tires Properly Maintained The condition of your tires has a large impact on fuel efficiency. Even slight underinflation can significantly increase rolling resistance, which means your truck has to burn through more gas for each mile it travels. Tires should always be kept at their optimal PSI as recommended in the owner's manual. Uneven wear and misaligned wheels also reduce gas mileage. Along with checking air pressure once or twice a month, periodically visit your local dealership for tire rotations and wheel realignments. more Drive at Moderate Speeds The ATA reports that driving a truck at 75 mph uses 27 percent more fuel than driving at 65 mph. If you stick to moderate speeds, you're likely to save more money on gas than you previously did on time by rushing around at hazardous speeds. Controlling your speed should include cruising whenever possible, which minimizes the use of the gas and brake pedals. Find Your Truck's Optimal RPMs The higher your RPMs, the more gas your engine consumes. Driving at more sedate speeds will help you find your truck's optimal RPMs for gas mileage, which tends to be between 1,250 and 1,350 RPMs. You can check your owner's manual for guidance on the RPM sweet spot for your particular model; one of our technicians can also let you know. Figure Out Time-Saving Routes It's advisable to use advanced routing and dispatch software to calculate the most efficient routes for all trips. When you drive less far to accomplish your transportation goals, you can save a great deal on both gas and time. Minimize Idling Where Possible One reason that heavy traffic is terrible for gas mileage is that idling guzzles gas. It's best to avoid idling as much as possible. While all drivers need to idle occasionally, cutting down even 10 or 20 percent on your idling could lead to significant long-term savings. Allow Us to Fine-Tune Your RAM Fuel Efficiency One further step you can take is to fine-tune your truck, ensuring it's performing as efficiently as possible. Routine servicing with experienced professionals saves you money on gas and repairs over the long run. We can arrange a straightforward servicing schedule and send you courteous reminders whenever an essential maintenance service is due. Visit Ewald Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM in Franklin, WI, to have your truck inspected and serviced by qualified professionals today.

Dodge is well-known for high-performance vehicles and some of the most iconic muscle cars ever built. Safety is an essential part of every vehicle design, and your Dodge includes various advanced driver-assistance features to enhance this safety. We will look closer at some of the standard and available Dodge safety features that protect you when you drive. Dodge Safety Features That Protect You on the Road Forward Collision Warning with Full Stop This system identifies potential collision situations and warns you, so an accident can be prevented. It will also actively assist if needed. It uses a forward-facing camera and radar to watch the road ahead for other vehicles. If a vehicle is detected, the system determines the distance between vehicles and calculates their respective speeds. If you're closing too fast on another vehicle, it provides visual and audio warnings so you can intervene. If it detects a likely collision, it activates the brakes to reduce your speed and can even bring your vehicle to a hard stop if necessary to prevent an accident. more Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Assist This feature is similar to the collision warning above but can identify pedestrians or animals in your path. It's continually active when you travel over 5mph up to highway speeds and provides visual and audio warnings if an accident is likely. If you can't react in time, this system will immediately apply hard braking to bring your Dodge to a stop. LaneSense with Lane-Keeping Assist LaneSense uses a camera to identify the lane line markings and then monitors your vehicle to ensure it stays within the lines. If your vehicle drifts across these lines and your direction indicator isn't active, a warning sounds and a warning icon appears on your screen. The system will also provide additional steering torque, allowing you to steer into your original lane. Drowsy Driver Alert It's easy to become tired or distracted if you've been behind the wheel for a long period. If you're tired, mistakes are more likely to happen and could cause an accident. This feature monitors your steering to identify these issues. If you're frequently drifting in your lane, it provides visual and audio warnings, including a coffee cup icon, to suggest you pull over and take a break. Traffic Signal Recognition Sometimes you can drive by a sign without reading it, and you could end up unintentionally speeding if the speed limit has dropped. This system recognizes traffic signs using a camera, and an icon representing the sign will appear on your screen. This allows you to reduce speed or make other decisions based on the identified traffic signal. These are some of the standard or available safety features you may have, depending on your model.

As a proud Jeep owner, you understand the importance of maintaining your vehicle. Diagnostic testing is a crucial component of proper Jeep maintenance. Of course, regular testing is most important to catch potentially important issues before they become serious, but other factors also make arranging your testing with your local Jeep dealer important. If you notice a "check engine light" or your car is not behaving as it should, arranging testing should be at the top of your to-do list. Diagnostic Testing in Jeep Maintenance: A Critical Tool Identifying Problems The main goal of regular testing is to identify problems with your Jeep. Specialist equipment will be used to help direct the mechanic professional to any problems with the vehicle's systems. These include the transmission, engine, electrical system, cooling system, brakes, exhaust, and more. Early detection of potential problems will often mean less costly repairs down the line. The longer you drive your Jeep with the problem not fixed, the greater the likelihood that it will get worse. The beauty of modern testing is that your technician won't need to manually search for the issue. By connecting their equipment directly to the diagnostic system of your vehicle, they can pinpoint the problem quickly and efficiently. more Maximizing Safety Many of the problems uncovered during testing can create safety issues if they are left unchecked. This is especially important for the brake system, steering problems, engine malfunctions, and airbag issues. Regular testing is always worth it if it lowers your risk of something going wrong. Optimizing Performance Jeeps are high-quality vehicles, and as a Jeep owner, you will want your car to operate at its peak performance. Some issues won't trigger the "check engine" light, and they also won't create a noticeable change in vehicle operation. But they could still affect its performance. Small inefficiencies that require minor adjustments to optimize performance will get picked up with regular testing. Resale Value If at any point in the future you might want to sell your Jeep, regular testing can help to maintain its resale value. A properly maintained vehicle with a history of regular testing will be more attractive to buyers. They want a vehicle with a clean bill of health that they know will perform well and be reliable. Getting Tested At Your Local Jeep Dealer If you want a diagnostic test for your Jeep, look no further than your local dealer. With in-depth knowledge of every Jeep model and all of the most sophisticated diagnostic tools and parts to hand, the experts are your best port of call. We are passionate about ensuring that every Jeep that leaves our dealership after a diagnostic test is in top condition and performing at its absolute peak.
