Do Dodge Raider Maintenance Like a Pro in Four Easy Steps

Your Raider is a classic Dodge three-door mini SUV of the late 1980s. To keep it in top shape, you'll need to stick to a maintenance schedule; don't let anything go longer than your owner's manual says. It might seem like a lot, but taking care of everything is fairly straightforward, actually. Here's some advice on how to go about it, to supplement your manual.

1. Make a Repair Checklist

Note repairs you've done already, including replacements or upgrades, plus what you haven't gotten to yet. Then, make a list you can compare to, of regular, seasonal, and long-term maintenance points. Keep track of everything you do, too. Here's some shorthand for that.

2. Keep Up with Regular Fixes

Check the engine oil, coolant (antifreeze), and other fluids, the engine and cabin air filters, your tire pressure and tread depth, and the interior and exterior lighting (e.g., headlights, taillights, daytime running lights/DRLs, and fog lights, if you have them). Flush and top off fluids, replace filters, tires, and bulbs, and do a tire rotation, as needed. Finish up by waxing the vehicle's body for protection.

3. Stay on Seasonal Upkeep

Check the antifreeze and battery, and put on climate-appropriate windshield wiper blades and tires. Top off the fluid and replace the battery, if needed.

4. Don't Neglect the Long Term

Check the transmission, differential, transfer case, and radiator fluids, the shocks and struts, the spark plugs, and the serpentine belt. Flush and replace fluids as called for, replace any parts necessary, and either tighten or change the belt, depending on its needs.

Feel free to contact a CDJR service center if you need help with any of this.
