2015 Chrysler 200 maintenance schedule

The factory schedule for normal driving. Oil changes follow the oil-change indicator on most models; severe use (towing, dusty roads, lots of idling) shortens some intervals.

A dot means the service is due at that mileage or after that many years, whichever comes first. Engines: see schedule title.

Additional Inspections
Inspect the CV joints.
Inspect front suspension, boot seals, tie rod ends, and replace if necessary.
Inspect the brake linings, parking brake function.
Additional Maintenance
Replace engine air cleaner filter.
Replace air conditioning/cabin air filter.
Replace spark plugs **
Flush and replace the engine coolant at 10 years or 150,000 miles (240,000 km) whichever comes first.
Inspect and replace PCV valve if necessary.

Once a month or before a long trip

  • Check engine oil level.
  • Check windshield washer fluid level.
  • Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
  • Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir and brake master cylinder, fill as needed.
  • Check function of all interior and exterior lights.

At every oil change interval as indicated by oil change indicator system

  • Change oil and filter
  • Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
  • Inspect battery and clean and tighten terminals as required
  • Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses and park brake
  • Inspect engine cooling system protection and hoses
  • Inspect exhaust system
  • Inspect engine air cleaner if using in dusty or off-road conditions

Severe duty, all models

  • Change engine oil at 4000 miles (6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off road environment.

Notes

  • Oil change intervals must never exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or twelve months, whichever comes first.
  • ** The spark plug change interval is mileage based only; yearly intervals do not apply.
