Some will tell you that getting your oil changed every 3,000 miles is critically important to your vehicle's health. Usually, it's over-zealous maintenance garages hoping to sell you on more services. Then, you remember reading on the internet somewhere that oil changes are highly overrated. You could drive for tens of thousands of miles without a change, and your car will be fine.

So who do you believe?

Chrysler recommends an oil change interval of 8,000 miles for its new vehicles, and you probably don't want to let it go longer than that -- especially if you're driving around in the hot Texas sun. Why not? Your oil serves a vital purpose as the life-blood of your engine.

Is your vehicle due for scheduled maintenance? The trained technicians at our El Paso service center can get you straightened out and on the road again with an oil and filter change, and make any needed repairs using genuine Mopar parts.
