Oil Level
The 3.0L engine does not have a
traditional “dipstick” and there is no
need to manually check the oil level
Úpage 316.
Oil Change Required
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change
indicator system. The “Oil Change Required” message will
display in the instrument cluster display for five seconds
after a single chime has sounded, to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil change
indicator system is duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctuate, dependent upon
your personal driving style and environmental conditions.
Unless reset, this message will continue to display each
time the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position. To turn
off the message temporarily, push and release the OK or
arrow buttons. To reset the oil change indicator system
(after performing the scheduled maintenance), refer to
the following procedure.3

CHECKING OIL LEVEL — 3.0L ENGINES
The 3.0L engine does not have a traditional “dipstick” and
there is no need to manually check the oil level. If it is
desired to check engine oil level, it can be seen on the
instrument cluster display by navigating to the appropriate
screen under “Vehicle Information”. Use the up or
down arrow buttons within the steering wheel controls
to find the “Vehicle Information” menu. Then use the
right or left arrow buttons until you reach the “Oil
Level” sub-menu.
There is a white bar on the gauge which shows the oil level.
As long as the oil level is between the minimum and the
maximum it is safe to operate the vehicle. If the oil level is
either too high or too low, a red bar will be illuminated.
When the engine is in need of more oil, the Oil Level
Warning Light will illuminate. This warning will appear for
five seconds. Within the next 300 miles (500 km) you
should add 1 quart of manufacturer specified motor oil to
the engine
Úpage 376. This light will reappear every time the engine is started
until a safe level is detected. Continuing to operate the
vehicle without adding oil may result in a critically low oil
level and possible engine damage (see “Critically Low”
below).
NOTE:Use care when filling under hood fluids such as engine oil,
washer fluid, antifreeze, etc. to minimize spillage onto top
of engine. Any excess fluid that is spilled onto the top of
the engine should be removed using compressed air or an
absorbent cloth.
Oil Level Display - How To Refresh After Adding Oil
In vehicles equipped with the 3.0L engine, the oil level is
automatically monitored when the vehicle is parked on a
level surface, the oil is warm, and the engine has been off
four minutes. To refresh the oil level display (after a quart
of the correct oil has been added), follow this process:

Run the engine until the oil temperature is above
120°F (49°C).
 Park the vehicle on relatively level ground. 
Turn the engine off and wait four minutes. If you choose
to stay in the vehicle and want to listen to the radio
while waiting, it is acceptable to have the ignition
switch in any position (OFF or ON/RUN) as long as the
engine is not running.
 Start the engine and the new oil level will be available
in the Vehicle Information menu (accessible via the
navigation buttons on the steering wheel).
NOTE:
If the level indication is not updated after the previously
described procedure, repeat. The oil level measure -
ment is made every time the engine has been turned
off (after being warmed up) and on a level surface. If
you do not get a “new” reading after adding oil, find a
more “level” surface to measure. Most parking lots and
gas stations are sufficiently level, some driveways are
not.
 If you have added a quart of oil and the indicator is not
reading 3/4 or full, please contact an authorized dealer
for service.

WARNING!
Be aware the oil cap may be hot. Please use suitable
gloves. WARNING: risk of burns!
CAUTION!
Do not to add too much oil. Overfilling the oil may
damage the engine.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE317
NOTE:
After adding oil to the engine, always reinstall the oil
cap securely by rotating clockwise until it stops. Never
run the engine without the oil fill cap as this could
cause an oil leak.
 Because the oil level is automatically detected only
when the engine has been off and restarted (after four
minutes), the system cannot immediately detect a
sudden drop in oil level while driving (for example, if the
oil pan starts to leak due to damage during an off-road
event).
CHECKING OIL LEVEL — 5.7L & 6.4L
E
NGINES
To ensure proper engine lubrication, the engine oil must
be maintained at the correct level. Check the oil level at
regular intervals, such as every fuel stop. The best time to
check the engine oil level is about five minutes after a fully
warmed up engine is shut off.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level ground will
improve the accuracy of the oil level readings.
There are four possible dipstick types:
 Crosshatched zone.
 Crosshatched zone marked SAFE.
 Crosshatched zone marked with MIN at the low end of
the range and MAX at the high end of the range.
 Crosshatched zone marked with dimples at the MIN
and the MAX ends of the range.
NOTE:Always maintain the oil level within the crosshatch
markings on the dipstick.
Adding 1 qt (1 L) of oil when the reading is at the low end
of the dipstick range will raise the oil level to the high end
of the range marking.
ADDING WASHER FLUID
The instrument cluster display will indicate when the
washer fluid level is low. When the sensor detects a low
fluid level, the Low Washer Fluid Warning Light will turn on
and the "Washer Fluid Low" message will be displayed.
The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers and the rear
window washer is shared. The fluid reservoir is located in
the engine compartment, be sure to check the fluid level
at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield
washer solvent only (not radiator antifreeze). When
refilling the washer fluid reservoir, take some washer fluid
and apply it to a cloth or towel and wipe clean the wiper
blades, this will help blade performance. To prevent
freeze-up of your windshield washer system in cold
weather, select a solution or mixture that meets or
exceeds the temperature range of your climate. This rating
information can be found on most washer fluid containers.
NOTE:Use care when filling under hood fluids such as engine oil,
washer fluid, antifreeze, etc. to minimize spillage onto top
of engine. Any excess fluid that is spilled onto the top of
the engine should be removed using compressed air or an
absorbent cloth.
CAUTION!
If the “Critically Low or Critically High” Oil Level Warning
Light is illuminated, the following steps should be
taken:
Critically Low: add two quarts of manufacturer speci -
fied oil as soon as possible
Úpage 376. Continuing
to operate the vehicle with “Critically Low” oil level
may damage the engine.
 Critically High: contact an authorized dealer for
service. Continuing to operate the vehicle with “Criti -
cally High” oil level may damage the engine.
Do not use any oils that are not manufacturer specified
and API approved.
Used engine oil and oil filters contain substances which
are harmful to the environment. When oil and filters are
changed contact an authorized dealer and dispose of in
a safe and responsible manner.
WARNING!
Commercially available windshield washer solvents are
flammable. They could ignite and burn you. Care must
be exercised when filling or working around the washer
solution.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Special Additives
The manufacturer strongly recommends against using any
special additives in the transmission. Automatic
Transmission Fluid (ATF) is an engineered product and its
performance may be impaired by supplemental additives.
Therefore, do not add any fluid additives to the
transmission. Avoid using transmission sealers as they
may adversely affect seals.
Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and does not require
adjustment under normal operating conditions. Routine
fluid level checks are not required; therefore the
transmission has no dipstick. An authorized dealer can
check your transmission fluid level using special service
tools. If you notice fluid leakage or transmission
malfunction, visit an authorized dealer immediately to
have the transmission fluid level checked. Operating the
vehicle with an improper fluid level can cause severe
transmission damage.
Fluid And Filter Changes
Under normal operating conditions, the fluid installed at
the factory will provide satisfactory lubrication for the life
of the vehicle.
Routine fluid and filter changes are not required. However,
change the fluid and filter if the fluid becomes
contaminated (with water, etc.), or if the transmission is
disassembled for any reason.
Selection Of Lubricant
It is important to use the proper transmission fluid to
ensure optimum transmission performance and life. Use
only the manufacturer's specified transmission fluid
Úpage 377. It is important to maintain the transmission
fluid at the correct level using the recommended fluid.
NOTE:No chemical flushes should be used in any transmission;
only the approved lubricant should be used.

To avoid contamination from foreign matter or mois -
ture, use only new brake fluid or fluid that has been
in a tightly closed container. Keep the master
cylinder reservoir cap secured at all times. Brake
fluid in an open container absorbs moisture from the
air resulting in a lower boiling point. This may cause
it to boil unexpectedly during hard or prolonged
braking, resulting in sudden brake failure. This could
result in a collision.
 Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in
spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts, causing the
brake fluid to catch fire. Brake fluid can also damage
painted and vinyl surfaces, care should be taken to
avoid its contact with these surfaces.
 Do not allow petroleum-based fluid to contaminate
the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be
damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure.
This could result in a collision.
WARNING!CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your transmission as the
chemicals can damage your transmission components.
Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an authorized
dealer immediately. Severe transmission damage may
occur. An authorized dealer has the proper tools to
adjust the fluid level accurately.
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the
manufacturer’s recommended fluid may cause
deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or torque
converter shudder.8
