- Severe operating conditions can bring on the change oil message as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset.
Severe duty (all models)
- Change engine oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off-road environment, or predominately at idle or very low engine RPM.
Once a month or before a long trip
- Check engine oil level.
