At any one moment, there’s a good chance that your RAM truck is the most well-engineered vehicle on the road. This is because RAMs are specifically made to be workhorses; tough, resilient, and more than capable of handling whatever life throws at you when out in the field. However, to keep your thoroughbred truck in fantastic shape, seasonal RAM inspection by your RAM dealer is more than necessary, and here are all the key benefits you stand to gain from it.
Safety
Unfortunately, identifying potential issues with your truck’s safety systems can be challenging if you’re not an expert. A seasonal inspection by your dealer ensures your truck is not a safety risk by meticulously examining the vehicle for potential hazards, such as worn-out brakes, suspension issues, tire wear or damage, faulty or worn-out wheel bearings, steering system malfunctions, issues with the transmission or drivetrain, and any other culprit. This allows you to safeguard the well-being of others and protect your cherished truck from harm.
Reliability
Few things are as frustrating – or as embarrassing – as experiencing a random breakdown on the side of the road while driving your seemingly indestructible RAM. However, despite its built-in ruggedness, your RAM is still a machine, requiring regular maintenance to uphold its reliability. A seasonal inspection ensures that potential issues are identified and addressed before they escalate into inconvenient breakdowns, allowing you to rely on your RAM with confidence whenever the road calls.
Cost Savings
Three things are certain in this world: death, taxes, and the costs of doing repairs being many times over those of doing preventative maintenance. This is because when you do an inspection, small issues that can result in larger and costlier problems are resolved immediately.
Take, for instance, a faltering water pump; left unattended, it could trigger overheating, resulting in catastrophic damage like a cracked engine block, a compromised radiator, or worse, a full-blown fire. As you can see, doing regular inspections ensures that your RAM not only stays in optimal condition for longer but also shields you from the financial sting of major repairs.
Increasing Your Resale Value
In case you decide to part ways with your beloved RAM, a documented history of regular inspections will serve as a significant selling point, boosting its resale value. This is because unlike most sellers who simply want buyers to “believe” them, you will actually have documented proof of your RAM’s pampered upkeep and maintenance.

Jeep vehicles are loaded with impressive technology, from off-roading tech to advanced safety and security features. We’re going to explore the latter so you can see just how safe the 2024 Jeep Compass truly is before you take it out for a test drive.
1. Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking
Your Jeep Compass has radar sensors on the front of it. These sensors can tell when you’re approaching the car in front of you too quickly. Your vehicle will send you an alert so you can slow down or come to a complete stop. If your Compass detects that you may get into a collision, and you don’t respond in time, then it’ll apply the brakes and try to prevent the collision from happening.
2. Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection
If a vehicle travels into one of your blind spots, then your Compass will detect it and send you an alert to make sure you know it’s there. The regular blind spot monitoring occurs during normal daily driving, but there’s also a function that activates specifically when backing up. The cross path detection feature sends you an alert so you’re aware of obstacles and vehicles that could get in your way behind you or to the side of your vehicle as you reverse.
3. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go
Adaptive cruise control brings a mixture of convenience and safety to any long journey. You can preselect a distance that you’d like to keep from the car ahead of you, then cruise control will take care of adjusting your speed to maintain that distance.
4. Active Lane Management
It’s important to have a good, centered position within the boundaries of your lane, and that’s what Active Lane Management takes care of. It can detect when you unintentionally drift too close to the boundaries of your lane, and it’ll send you an alert when it detects that.
If needed, it can also help correct your vehicle’s position. Plus, if there’s a vehicle in one of your blind spots that you might collide with, then the Active Lane Management can apply corrective steering to help keep you safe in those situations, too.
5. Drowsy Driver Detection
It can be difficult to stay completely alert during long journeys, especially if you’ve been driving for many hours, and it’s getting late. Drowsy Driver Detection is an available feature that lets your car track your interaction with the vehicle. It identifies drowsiness in the driver and sends you an alert to keep you focused.
Do those safety features sound like something you want in your next vehicle? Come to Fury Motors St Paul CDJR in St Paul, MN to explore everything else the Compass has to offer.

Available 12-way power-adjustable front seats are designed for optimized visibility on the trail, but they also offer the perfect vantage point when maneuvering into a tight city parking space.
The Gladiator’s rear bench seat accommodates three passengers, but it can be folded down in full or in part, offering up a variety of configurations that accommodate bulky items in need of transport.
Helpful Technology
Whether you’re squeezing into a parking space or hitching up a trailer, the Gladiator has technology features that can help. The rear backup camera displays dynamic gridlines and features trailer hitch zoom, making it easy to back up to a trailer. An available Rear Park Assist System triggers an audio alert when you get too close to a hazard when backing into a space.
Adaptive cruise control is a standard feature on this vehicle, and Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection are available. The Gladiator is also equipped with the Uconnect 5 infotainment system, which runs on a 12.3-inch touchscreen.

3 CDJR Services Offered by Your CDJR Dealer
Maintaining a good servicing schedule is the easiest and most affordable way to protect your vehicle. All components eventually fail or get damaged, but a regular CDJR service will keep your vehicle running perfectly. As your CDJR dealer, we have a huge range of services available. These are some samples of the maintenance we can perform.
Alternator Repair
The alternator generates electricity for your vehicle’s systems. It does this by spinning at high speed to produce magnetic energy, which is then converted into AC, and the AC is then changed by the rectifier into the DC which your vehicle can use. The alternator works continuously from the time your engine is switched on to when you switch it off again.
Over time, the constant movement can cause damage to alternator components, which reduces the alternator’s ability to produce electricity. In addition, an older alternator will gradually produce less power until it eventually fails. Our experts can repair most components in an alternator, and we can replace the alternator if it’s failing.
Brake Pad Replacement
Brake pads are held in the brake calipers by clips or pins, and they produce the friction that forces your wheels to stop. They can do this as they have a special material covering that generates great friction when it’s held against the rotors by the calipers. The material covering a brake pad will slowly wear down, and when it reaches 1/4″ thickness, the pad needs to be replaced.
A worn pad will make screeching sounds when it’s due for replacement. These noises will give way to louder grinding noises, as a severely worn pad will cut into the rotor surface. Our technicians can quickly replace brake pads while you wait. If a rotor has only minor damage, we can resurface it. We can also replace a rotor if it has suffered major damage.
Coolant Replacement
Coolant is a mixture of antifreeze and water, and its purpose is to remove heat from the engine. Your engine produces large amounts of heat due to the constant movement of engine components and the energy produced by combustion. Coolant is pumped through the engine continuously, and it absorbs heat. It then transports this heat to the radiator for removal via heat exchange.
Coolant should be replaced every 30,000 miles on average. Older coolant loses much of its heat-absorbing ability, and it becomes corrosive. Corrosive coolant will slowly damage metal components in the cooling system and cause your engine to overheat. We’ll flush your engine to remove all traces of the old coolant then we’ll refill the coolant.

Basics About the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe has arrived at Fury Motors St Paul CDJR, and it’s an impressive machine to behold. From an upgraded exterior to an improved infotainment system, we take a look at what’s new and what’s to love about the new Wrangler 4xe.
As a plug-in hybrid, the Wrangler 4xe is an SUV for the eco-conscious driver. It still handles every type of terrain as well as you’d expect from a Jeep.
You now have the option of driving all-electric for short trips around town or getting in a few hours of trail riding thanks to the 21-mile all-electric range. Running out of juice is no longer a problem as the vehicle’s gas engine kicks in as soon as the battery gets too low, giving you a combined 49 mpg and a 370-mile total driving range.
New Features
Trims
The Wrangler 4xe is available in six trim levels: Sport, Willys, Sahara, High Altitude, Rubicon, and Rubicon X. The basic Sport still features many creature comforts, such as 20-inch alloy wheels, automatic climate control, adaptive cruise control, and manual adjustable seats. At the other end, the Rubicon X goes all out to impress with winch-capable steel bumpers, leather-trimmed seats, and heated power front seats as standard.
Exterior
On the outside, the 4xe has the unmistakable look of a classic Jeep. However, new for 2024 is a redesigned seven-slot grill. This functional change allows more air to flow to the powertrain. Jeep has also relocated the antenna to prevent it from getting caught when off-roading.
Engine
A 2.0 liter in-line four direct injection PHEV engine hides under the hood, delivering 375 horsepower. Charging the battery via the included Level 1 cable takes around 12 hours. Upgrade to the available Level 2 charger and the 4ex battery charges in just 2 hours.
Storage and Towing
As with the majority of offerings from Jeep, the Wrangler comes with lots of storage options, from the cargo tie-down loops to a full-length floor console. A max payload of 1,328 pounds and a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds lets you hitch up the trailer, load up the family, and head off for an off-road adventure.
Infotainment
Jeep’s Uconnect 5 infotainment system means the 4xe is equipped with a 12.3-inch touchscreen for displaying climate controls and media info. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration are also included as standard. Lower trim levels come with an eight-speaker sound system as standard while the High Altitude and Rubicon feature the Alpine Premium audio system with nine speakers (including a rear subwoofer) and a 12-channel amplifier. Higher specs are also equipped with a TomTom navigation system.

Your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM is a workhorse, whether it’s conquering the daily commute, tackling weekend adventures, or hauling the essentials. But just like you need hydration to stay energized, your vehicle’s engine craves fresh oil to operate at its best. The question is: when was your last oil change at your CDJR dealership?
Don’t Let Your Engine Run Dry
Oil swap-outs aren’t just a suggestion; they’re the most important way you can protect that powerful engine under the hood. Neglecting this essential maintenance task is like running a marathon without water: eventually, you’ll hit the wall. Over time, engine oil breaks down, losing its ability to lubricate, cool, and clean your engine’s vital components.
Know the Signs
Dashboard Warning Lights
That illuminated oil pressure light is your engine’s cry for help! Don’t ignore it. It means the levels are low, in most cases, and if you’re seeing it too early, you likely have a leak.
Ticking or Knocking Noises
Strange sounds from under the hood could indicate insufficient lubrication, meaning that you have engine parts knocking against each other in ways they definitely shouldn’t be!
Dark and Dirty Oil
If the oil on your dipstick looks black and sludgy, you’re way past due. Fresh oil is amber and translucent. That dark sludge means the oil is filled up with fine particles that have come off the engine, as well as grit and dirt.
Burning Oil Smell
This unpleasant odor is often a sign of oil leaking onto a hot engine, so bring it in and we’ll take a look.
Decreased Fuel Efficiency
Old, worn-out oil can make your engine work harder, affecting your miles per gallon.
Beyond Just Mileage
While your owner’s manual has recommended intervals, factors like your driving habits and oil type can impact how often you need a change. Extreme temperatures and dusty off-roading mean you should refresh your oil more often, too. If your daily commute mainly consists of quick errands, your engine may not get hot enough to fully burn off condensation, contaminating your oil faster.
You’ll also want to talk to us about your oil changes if you do a lot of towing and hauling, as these can put extra strain on the engine and the oil. Getting fresh oil more often protects your engine in these conditions.
Check your owner’s manual for guidance, but don’t hesitate to come see us sooner if you notice any of the warning signs. Our technicians can also offer expert advice and get you back on the road with fresh oil and peace of mind. Come see us at Fury Motors St Paul CDJR in South St. Paul, MN today or make an appointment online.

From this screen, you can quickly check your speed, the speed limit, check your turn-by-turn navigation, and more.
Cutting-Edge Safety Features
The Wagoneer is a popular vehicle choice for families. But it isn’t just the spacious interior and third-row seating that makes it perfect for families of all ages.
