Regular oil changes keep your engine running at its best. They also guard the parts inside it from heat and friction. Oil breaks down over time. Heat, combustion byproducts, and road dust all wear it out. Fresh factory-approved oil brings proper lubrication back.
Our certified service department handles both synthetic and conventional oil changes. We follow the maintenance schedule built for your vehicle. During a visit, factory-trained technicians swap the oil filter and refill the engine with the exact amount of oil it needs. They also run a full vehicle health check.

Do Dodge Dealers Accept Mobile Digital Coupons and Include Free Tire Rotations?
Our service department accepts printed paper coupons and mobile digital coupons alike. Either one can be shown on a smartphone screen at the time of write-up. Mopar confirms that most of its coupons can be printed or shown on a phone at participating dealerships. A standalone oil change discount may add a fee for a tire rotation. Bundled offers often fold the rotation in as part of a full multi-point service.
Using a Digital Coupon at Write-Up

When to Rotate Your Dodge Tires
Tire rotations extend tread life and maintain predictable handling. For your Dodge, rotation timing follows the vehicle rather than a generic mileage figure. The owner’s manual calls for a rotation at every oil change the indicator system asks for. It also calls for one at the first sign of uneven wear, even if that comes before the indicator lights up. Drivers across Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, San Bernardino, Claremont, and Riverside can handle both items in a single visit.
The information in this article is general guidance and does not constitute a specific diagnostic or repair recommendation for any individual vehicle. Repair and maintenance decisions should be made in consultation with a certified technician based on the specific condition of your vehicle.
What Maintenance Does Dodge Recommend at Each Service Interval?
Dodge builds its maintenance program around the oil change indicator rather than a fixed calendar. At every oil change interval the system calls for, the owner’s manual specifies a consistent set of items:
- Change the engine oil and filter.
- Rotate the tires, including at the first sign of irregular wear.
- Inspect the battery, and clean and tighten terminals as required.
- Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses, and the park brake.
- Inspect engine cooling system protection and hoses.
- Inspect the exhaust system.
- Inspect the engine air cleaner when driving in dusty or off-road conditions.
Keeping to this schedule heads off surprise wear. It also helps fuel economy and keeps factory warranty coverage intact. For the full mileage-based chart, including the longer-interval items that fall at 30,000 miles and beyond, see our Dodge maintenance schedule. You can also bring the vehicle in and let our advisors pull the schedule that matches your VIN.
Take the 2026 Dodge Durango R/T. It pairs a 5.7L HEMI V8 with a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic. The engine makes 360 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque. A setup like that rewards steady, on-time service. You can book an appointment online or by phone.

Which Engine Oil Viscosity Spec Is Required for the Dodge 5.7L HEMI V8 Engine?
The Dodge 5.7L HEMI V8 requires SAE 5W-20 engine oil meeting FCA Material Standard MS-6395. Here is the full specification for that engine:
| Specification | 5.7L HEMI V8 |
|---|---|
| Viscosity grade | SAE 5W-20 |
| Material standard | FCA Material Standard MS-6395 |
| Oil capacity with filter | Approximately 7 quarts |
| Systems that depend on oil viscosity | Variable valve timing phasers and Multi-Displacement System lifters |
Why Viscosity Is Not a Preference on an MDS Engine
The 5.7L uses engine oil as hydraulic fluid. That oil drives both the variable valve timing phasers and the Multi-Displacement System lifters. On a light throttle, the system shuts the lifters in four of the engine’s eight cylinders. Those valves stay closed, so no fuel burns in them. The switch between eight cylinders and four takes 40 milliseconds.
Oil outside the listed grade slows how fast those lifters react. The powertrain control module can spot it. The module reads oil pressure, oil temperature, and other engine inputs to work out the grade in the pan. If it does not match, it can set trouble code P1521, Incorrect Engine Oil Type. The documented effect is delayed cylinder activation.
A Note for Charger Owners
The 5.7L HEMI guidance above applies to the Durango and to previous-generation Charger models. The current Charger lineup uses a Twin-Turbo 3.0L SIXPACK inline-six in Scat Pack and R/T models. The all-electric Charger Daytona uses no engine oil at all. For Charger capacities and viscosity by model year, see our Dodge Charger oil type and capacity guide. Ram owners can check our Ram 1500 oil type guide for HEMI, Hurricane, and V6 specifications.
How Often Your Dodge Needs an Oil Change
Whichever engine you drive, follow the automatic oil change indicator system. Dodge also sets hard outer limits that apply regardless of what the dashboard reads.
| Limit | Value | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Maximum mileage | 10,000 miles | Whichever of the three limits comes first |
| Maximum time | 12 months | Whichever of the three limits comes first |
| Maximum engine run time | 350 hours | Generally a concern for fleet vehicles only |
| Severe-duty indicator trigger | As early as 3,500 miles | Have the vehicle serviced within the next 500 miles |
| Dusty, off-road, or extended idle use | 4,000 miles | Severe Duty oil change interval for all models |

Common Questions About Dodge Maintenance and Service Specials
Does our dealership list current service coupons on the website?
Yes. Our service specials page regularly lists active offers for synthetic oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacements, battery installations, and general maintenance. Requirements, maximum values, and expiration dates vary by offer, so reviewing active coupons before you schedule ensures you lock in the best available savings.
Can Dodge owners perform DIY maintenance without voiding their factory warranty?
Yes. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission, it is illegal for a manufacturer or dealer to void your warranty or deny coverage simply because someone other than the dealer performed the work. An independent shop or the owner may perform routine maintenance. The FTC advises keeping all service records and receipts regardless of who performs the service, so you can demonstrate the vehicle was maintained if a claim arises.
This information is provided for general educational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Warranty coverage depends on the specific terms of your vehicle’s warranty agreement. Consult your owner’s manual or a qualified legal professional for guidance on your individual situation.
Is a transmission fluid flush required during 30,000-mile routine maintenance?
Transmission fluid service is not among the standard items that accompany every oil change interval. It falls on the longer mileage-based chart, and the correct interval depends on your model, model year, and whether the vehicle sees severe-duty use such as commercial hauling, frequent off-road driving, or trailer towing. Check the maintenance schedule for your specific vehicle or ask our service advisors rather than working from a general figure.
How does the automatic oil change indicator system calculate service timing?
The system monitors engine operating conditions and illuminates an Oil Change Required message when service is due. Frequent short trips, trailer towing, extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures, and E85 fuel use all influence when that message appears. Under severe operating conditions it can illuminate as early as 3,500 miles since the last reset, and the vehicle should be serviced within the next 500 miles when it does.
What documentation is needed to redeem a digital service coupon at write-up?
Show the active promotional offer on your smartphone or mobile device to your service advisor during check-in. The coupon code, terms, and expiration date must be legible so the advisor can apply the discount to your repair order. More answers are collected in our CDJR service FAQ.
