Variety Is The Spice Of Life: Your ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab truck is like a canvas waiting for an artist to do his "Upfitter" magic to it. The possibilities are endless but at the end of the business day, you still have to take care of your investment. Whether you choose to run gasoline or diesel versions of the Ram's famous engines, they are both mated to six-speed automatic transmissions in front wheel drive configurations for enhanced traction and grip. The end result is a vehicle that will bring your shop or business virtually everywhere. For more information on the possibilities, please contact your  Northlake Ram ProMaster Service Advisor.


Oil and Filters: A combo of fresh oil and a new oil filter help to keep your  Northlake Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab on the road each day. Now that you have upfitted your Ram, making it into the work truck of your dreams, isn't it worth protecting? In light of what you will be asking your Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab to do, we suggest a trip to your Northlake Ram Commercial service center for an oil change.

Brakes, Rotors And More: Brakes are critical to the people and product inside your Northlake Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab. As such, they should be inspected monthly or during a routine oil change, whichever comes first. It's also the perfect time to have your  Northlake Ram Commercial Service Technician inspect the parking brake functions to make sure they are operating according to specifications. A Napleton Pro Tip: Aggressive driving wears your pads down faster than normal. Spreading the distance between vehicles ahead of you will allow more time and distance to gently slow your Ram Commercial Chassis Cab to avoid any contact. This in turn extends the overall brake life. As always, your mileage may vary. Contact your  Northlake Ram Service Advisor for a brake inspection today.



Transmission Care:  The sealed six-speed automatic transmission inside your Northlake Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab is a sealed-unit whose transmission fluid and filter should be changed once every 60,000 miles. If your ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab is used in hostile, high heat environments, it should be changed more frequently. Inspect the A/T fluid level approximately once a month to insure it's always at the proper level. Your Ram Commercial Owner's Manual is also the perfect source for more information. Your Napleton Ram Commercial service advisor is always available with additional information.


Filtration: Your new Northlake Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab is a super-capable truck that can get you from shop location to job to home and back again. That's why it deserves to breathe through the best Mopar-approved Air Filter available. Designed to remove dirt and debris before it has a chance to enter your engine, it is not something to be trifled with. Your Northlake Ram Commercial Service advisor can procure for you, the proper Mopar-Approved air filter for your ProMaster Chassis Cab truck. Effective for approximately 30,000 miles, they should be changed more frequently if driven in sandy or dusty climates like here in South Florida. You Northlake Ram ProMaster Service Department will stock the correct filter for all your Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab needs.

Windshield Wipers: Nobody likes driving through a fog but without proper functioning Windshield Wipers, that's essentially what you will be doing. If the wipers become brittle, dry, cracking or blotchy or just don't work, what's the point? You may as well be just be stuck on the side of the road. Smearing, blotchiness, or not even moving the water off the windshield are just a few clues that your wipers have likely outlived their useful lives. We recommend changing them every six months for best results. Your  Northlake Ram Commercial service department stocks the proper windshield wiper set for your Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab.  

Spark Plugs: If your Ram ProMaster is gasoline powered, its spark plugs should last approximately 100,000-miles before needing a change. If you are diesel-equipped, all you have to say to yourself is "what spark plugs?" because your engine doesn't use them. Basically an "untouchable," you won't need to worry about them for quite a while. Your Northlake Ram Commercial Service Department can offer Mopar-Approved replacement spark plugs if needed. Consult your Ram ProMaster Commercial Cargo Van's Owner's Manual or your Northlake Ram Commercial Service Advisor for more details.



All-Wheel-Alignment: Proper alignment is just one way to get long life from your tires. But more than that, proper alignment helps you steer the car straight, so you aren't wrenching the steering wheel left or right all the time. Bumps, curbs and potholes are the general culprits to be avoided. Your  Northlake Ram ProMaster Service Department can get you back on the straight and narrow in no time. Taking care of vehicle alignment as soon as possible goes a long way toward preventing premature tire wear. Properly aligned, your Northlake Ram ProMaster Commercial Chassis Cab should get equal tire wear at all four corners. A Napleton Pro Tip: Always rotate and balance your tires before having the vehicle realigned. Follow the rotation diagrams as shown in your ProMaster Owner's Manual and consult with your Napleton Northlake Ram Commercial Service Advisor for more information.

Once a month: For the continued well-being of your vehicle, your Northlake Ram ProMaster Commercial service department recommends a periodic check monitoring the conditions of your Ram Commercial Chassis Cab truck. The ProMaster Owner's Manual suggests an inspection of tire pressures, engine oil levels, excessive tire wear. A quick inspection of the washer fluid level, coolant, and brake master cylinder fluid levels, as well as all interior and exterior lights, will insure you are ready for a big road trip, or just a regular day of work.
