Routine maintenance should be performed on RAM Trucks to extend their service life. Our team at Watson Ludington has provided the tips below to help our truck drivers in Ludington, MI.
Your truck’s engine is made up of several moving parts. Engine oil helps lubricate these vital components as they rub against one another, reducing wear, heat, and friction. After some time, this oil breaks down or becomes contaminated with dirt, dust, or combustion by-products, which makes it lose its lubricating abilities. By changing your engine oil regularly, you can ensure that your engine receives a fresh supply of clean oil for optimal lubrication. This will improve your truck’s gas mileage and prevent engine damage.
Maintaining your tires and keeping them in perfect condition for safe driving is also recommended. Driving on damaged tires will reduce your truck’s handling abilities and put you and everyone else on the road at significant risk. Carry out the following maintenance tasks to increase your tires’ lifespan.
Tire Pressure Checks and Adjustments. Proper tire pressure is essential for safety, fuel efficiency, and longevity. So, check your tire pressure occasionally and
The brakes are the most essential security feature of any RAM Truck. A faulty braking system can pose significant risks to you and your passengers. So, having your brakes checked regularly ensures they are in a safe condition. If you visit our dealership for a repair or maintenance visit, tell the mechanics to check the brake pads, rotors, and other parts to ensure they are still in good shape.
In addition to engine oil, your RAM Truck uses power steering, transmission, and brake fluid to run smoothly. Low levels of these fluids can result in several mechanical issues and affect your truck’s performance. So, you must check these fluids regularly and fill them back up when they are low.
Lastly, you must inspect your truck’s electrical system and battery every six months to ensure they are in perfect working order. It is also good to clean up the battery terminals, preferably with baking soda and warm water, to remove particles that cause corrosion and shorten the battery lifespan.
