Chrysler Jeep Service Center In Waldorf, MD
We encourage you to stop by our Chrysler Jeep service center in Waldorf, MD, approximately every six months. Most vehicles that take synthetic oil need oil change service every 7,500 miles or so, depending on the make and model, to keep their engines running smoothly, prevent overheating, and boost fuel economy. Here's a closer look at our regular preventive maintenance services.
What Can We Do for You at Our Chrysler Jeep Service Center?
Your car has several parts that will naturally wear with time, especially those that experience friction. Therefore, come to us for the following maintenance:
- Oil Change Service: As previously discussed, you should get oil changes at a set interval. However, if your engine starts making knocking sounds or if your car is having trouble changing gears or with its general performance, you might need an oil change early. Pop the hood and look at the engine oil dipstick to assess its texture and color. Dark and gritty? Set an appointment.
- Brake Repair Service: When you press on your brake pedal, pressurized hydraulic fluid causes your brake pads to press against the brake discs or rotors, causing friction that helps bring your vehicle to a stop. These brake pads tend to wear thin every 30,000 to 70,000 miles. When they do, you might notice screeching while braking or that it takes longer for the car to stop. Taking your car in for brake service ASAP protects your family.
- Tire Service: Your tires' treads help your vehicle maintain traction on the roads in Waldorf, MD. However, they will wear with time and can often do so unevenly. Regular tire rotation and tire balancing can help extend their life span. However, tires with less than 3/32" of tread need to be swapped out for new tires.
- Battery Replacement: If your vehicle's engine is slow to crank or start or if your electronics or headlights seem to be on the fritz, visit our Jeep service center in Waldorf, MD, before your car might not turn on at all. Your car battery might just be low on juice, and driving can help recharge it. However, if these problems are recurring, it's a sign that your battery is dying. Most car batteries last three to five years.
You can also rely on us for other types of vehicle repair, like issues with the transmission, suspension system, belts, power steering system, electrical system, driver-assistance features, AC and heat, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much time does an oil change take?
Most oil changes take between 20 and 45 minutes. However, we often inspect other aspects of the vehicle, like the tires or brakes, too. If something is amiss, we'll discuss it with you so you can decide if you'd like to address it ASAP. This could add time to your appointment but save you time in the long run. We'll be open about any other causes of delay, as well.
How long do Chrysler brakes last?
Most brake pads last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles. To help them achieve their maximum life span, try not to brake abruptly. Slowing to stops will result in less wear, and leaving more following distance between you and other vehicles can help. You should also avoid towing weights in excess of the owner's manual recommendations. Periodic brake fluid flushes are helpful, too.
Is it better to go to a dealership for a car service?
There are many benefits to going to a dealership for car maintenance and repairs. Our experts know CDJR vehicles inside and out, including the latest innovations in driver-assistance features. On top of that, we have easy access to Mopar parts, and if there is something wrong with a part of your vehicle that is under warranty, we can apply that without issue.
