You also have the option to upgrade to a 5.7L HEMI V8 with 360 hp and 390 lb-ft of torque. If you'd like more power, the SRT 392 trim AWD has a 6.4L HEMI V8 with 475 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. For the ultimate engine for your Durango, the SRT Hellcat AWD offers a 6.2L supercharged HEMI V8 with 710 hp and 645 lb-ft of torque. The standard transmission with all engines is 8-speed, and RWD is standard, although AWD is available. AWD is standard on the SRT 392 and SRT Hellcat. Towing The Durango has a varied towing capacity depending on engine size and drivetrain. The 3.6L V6 can tow up to 6,200 pounds when fully equipped. This rises to 7,400 pounds with the 5.7L V8 and 8,700 pounds with the 6.4L V8 and supercharged 6.2L V8. Fuel Economy Powerful engines like the V6 and especially the V8 can be very thirsty, but these Dodge engines have high-tech features to provide you with the best fuel economy. The 3.6L with RWD reaches 19 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, and the AWD version is slightly down at 18 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. The 5.7L V8 achieves 14 mpg in the city and 22 mpg on the highway on both RWD and AWD versions. The larger 6.4L V8 is only available in AWD and hits 13 mpg in the city and 19 mpg on the highway.

You can get your new tires at your local CDJR dealer, and the dealer will be happy to help you maintain them so your new set lasts a long time. more 1. Too Little Tread Depth Tires need at least 1/16 of an inch of tread depth to be road-safe, though you should have at least double that if you drive on wet roads frequently. You should regularly measure your tread depth using a tread depth gauge so you'll know when it's time for a fresh set of tires. Alternatively, you can put a Lincoln-head penny upside down into the tread to check the depth. When Lincoln's whole profile is visible, it's time to replace your tires. 2. Too Much Vibration Even cars that deliver extremely smooth rides have a little vibration on each journey. If you've had your vehicle for a while, then you know how much vibration is normal for it. If you notice rides are getting more uncomfortable with more vibration, then you should visit the dealer. Worn-down tires can result in rides with more vibration, as can unbalanced and misaligned tires. 3. Cracked Sidewall Inspect your tires regularly for signs of damage. Specifically, look out for grooves and cracks visible on the sidewall. If you spot any grooves or cracks, then it could be a sign that your tire is leaking or that it's going to blow out soon. Visit the dealer ASAP, as driving on damaged tires is a safety hazard. 4. Blistered Sidewall Cracks aren't the only issue you should look out for when inspecting your tires. Blisters and bulges can also appear, creating a weak spot on your tire. These can blow out easily, and it could happen at any time. If the tire blows out, then you'll be in serious danger, so never ignore a bulge or blister on the sidewall. 5. Visible Tread Wear Indicator Modern tires have tread wear indicators that let you know when your tread has worn down too much. The indicators are flat rubber bars that are easily visible, and they run perpendicular to the tread. If at least two of these bars become visible, then you'll need to visit the dealer for a fresh set of tires. 6. Old Tires Most tires are at their best for 60,000 miles or around 3 to 5 years. However, if you don't drive very much, then it may take you significantly longer to drive 60,000 miles. Never leave tires on your car for more than 10 years, even if you haven't driven 60,000 miles yet. Have you noticed any of the signs we talked about above? Come and get your tires replaced at Snethkamp Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ran in Redford, MI.

These warranties protect your investment against the unlikely event of an issue with your vehicle's manufacturing. As your CDJR dealer, we want to give you the highlights of your new CDJR warranty. more New Car Limited Warranty This warranty applies to all CDJR models and provides bumper-to-bumper protection. All vehicle components are protected against any issue with the workmanship or materials that went into creating your vehicle. If any system needs to be adjusted, repaired, or replaced, your dealer will complete this work free of charge. This warranty applies for the first three years/36,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Gas Powertrain Limited Warranty The powertrain consists of your engine, transmission, and drivetrain. These systems work together to move your vehicle. The engine produces large amounts of chaotic energy. This energy is then focused by the transmission and transferred to the powertrain, which moves your wheels. Any issue with one of these systems automatically affects the performance of the other two. The powertrain warranty applies for the first five years/60,000 miles. Diesel Powertrain Limited Warranty If you have a diesel engine, this warranty applies rather than the warranty above. It protects your diesel engine's components, together with the transmission and drivetrain. This warranty has a duration of five years/100,000 miles, whichever comes first. Emissions Warranty The emissions control system in your vehicle has the important job of reducing pollution caused by the combustion process. Combustion powers your vehicle but also produces a range of dangerous and toxic gases. These gases pass into the emissions control system, where they're converted into harmless chemicals. This warranty protects the emissions system against any unforeseen issues. The terms and duration of this warranty depend on your vehicle's make and model. Extended Warranties Your original warranties will end, but this doesn't mean your protection has to. CDJR vehicles have a range of extended warranty programs available that provide coverage for any repairs you may need. Each plan offers you a choice of term duration and your choice of deductible. All repair work needed under an extended warranty is performed by CDJR-trained technicians and using only OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement parts. Two of the plans you can choose from are the Added Car Plus, which covers over 800 components across your vehicle's systems, and the Maximum Care plan which covers over 5,000 components. These are only the highlights of the comprehensive coverage that your CDJR vehicle enjoys. If you'd like more specific information about your vehicle's protection, contact us today at Snethkamp CDJR in Redford, MI.

All that said, keeping your RAM working at its best requires regular services. As your RAM dealer, we want to tell you more about some of the types of RAM service we can provide for your vehicle. more Brake Service The brakes on your RAM are designed to bring your wheels to a stop in seconds. Over time, parts can wear out or become damaged. In addition, components like the brake fluid and brake pads need to be regularly replaced so your brakes will continue to work effectively. In a brake service, our highly trained technicians thoroughly check your braking system. We check the quality of the brake fluid and then replace it to ensure that it always generates the necessary hydraulic power. The calipers, rotors, and all other components are also tested to confirm they're working correctly. Getting a brake service with us gives you peace of mind that your brakes are in perfect working condition. Oil Changes Oil is vital for your engine, as it lubricates all the components. This lubrication protects moving components against friction damage and allows them to move smoothly. As the oil passes through your engine, it has a cooling effect and helps to reduce the overall engine temperature. In addition, additives in modern oils protect against rust and break down engine deposits. Engine oil is gradually consumed as it circulates through your engine, and it also ages. Older oil is less effective at preventing friction damage or engine blockages. During an oil change, we test the oil and then drain it. If the oil is in poor condition, traces of it may remain behind. We will fix this by flushing your engine to remove the old oil. We then check the sump seal is in good condition, and we refill your oil. Tire Rotations A regular tire rotation schedule saves you time and money. Your tires slowly were down due to friction with the surface, and they also suffer wear and tear from climatic conditions and balance or alignment issues. In addition, a tire suffers increased wear on certain sections depending on its position on your car. Repeated damage to the same section will eventually cause a leak or blowout. In a tire rotation, we remove your tires and shift them to different positions. The exact positions they move to are determined by your vehicle's drivetrain. Moving your tires spreads the wear equally, so your tires will wear down at a relatively even rate. Reducing wear damage prevents early tire replacement, which saves you money. We have many other types of services available. To find out more, call our service center today at Snethkamp CDJR in Redford, MI.
