The 200 Can Join the Pack of Respectable Sedans | MotorTrend | All America Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram

Most people aren't car enthusiasts. They see their vehicles in a much more utilitarian way, and only think hard about them when they've lost their keys.

These people buy the bulk of vehicles sold today, and they're the primary customers of the midsize car segment, the largest single segment in America. For a carmaker to be taken seriously, it needs a competitive vehicle in this group. For more than two decades, the midsize segment has been ruled by the likes of the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord. The Americans continued to besmirch their reputation with significantly inferior midsize entries. But that no longer seems to be the case. The Ford Fusion is a solid competitor and the Chevrolet Malibu is the only mild hybrid in the mix. And then there was the Chrysler 200, a rogue of bad taste. That has changed with the launch of the 2015 Chrysler 200 midsize sedan. It's a true Camry-fighter, a moniker placed on many Chryslers before with little enthusiasm or belief. But this time it's apt.

Common Tire Mistakes Everyone Makes | American Chrysler Dodge Jeep | Slaton, TX

Tires are one of the most vital parts of your vehicle. Sure, you need the engine to give them power, but if your engine breaks you pretty much just stop moving. If your tire breaks, though, stopping is the best case scenario.

Not only is improperly caring for your tires expensive, it’s dangerous. So, here are some of the most common tire mistakes we see, so you may avoid them.

Over and Under Inflation

This is often a result of “eyeballing” tire pressure as opposed to using a gauge, or not airing back up after airing down for a trail run. Running on tires which are over or under-inflated prematurely wears down the treads and can reduce traction.

Keeping your tires within the proper psi range will increase their life span by insuring they wear in the right places.

Improper Maintenance

When was the last time you got a tire rotation? What about an alignment?

Frequent rotation of your tires in accordance with your owner’s manual insures they wear evenly, increasing their life span. Even if your rig is perfectly aligned, the front tires still take more of a beating than the rear because they hold much of the weight of the engine. The front tires also take the brunt of the friction damage from turning and steering angles.

Alignments are neglected even more often than tire rotations. Misaligned tires result in uneven wear in places your treads were not designed to be worn (different parts of the tire are made from different material to make them tougher or softer for traction and durability).

Alignments should be done at least every 30,000 miles. If you’re an off-roader, you should have an alignment done every single time you repair or modify your suspension. Added a lift? Get it aligned. Put in new spring leaf shocks? Get it aligned. Got larger tires? Get it aligned.

It may seem like a lot of time and expense to care for the rubber that keep you rolling, but the smoother ride and added life span on your tires makes it worth it.

Bent or Worn Suspensions

There are a lot of bits and pieces in your suspension system: bushings, ball joints, control arms and etc. Each of those parts can wear down or become bent and when they do, the result can be misaligned tires. If you keep a close eye on the way your treads wear, you can often tell if there is something wrong with your suspension. 

For instance, if there is outer wear on your tires and you know they’ve been consistently properly inflated, there’s probably a suspension issue. 

Not taking proper care of your suspension by replacing worn or bent parts can mean you are not only eventually forking over funds for new suspension parts, but you will also need to replace your lopsided tires.

Little Wheels, Big Tires

Let’s say you just upgraded to a sweet set of 40” Super Swampers, because you live in the Northeast and mud is inevitable on the trail. A little while down the road, you have odd wear and your tires aren’t giving you the traction they used to. Most likely, this is because you did not get the right width wheels when you upsized to new tires.

Fitting the appropriate width wheels to large tires is vital to keeping them trail-ready. They are the backbone of your tires.

Of course, eventually, you will need new tires. If you avoid these mistakes, though, you can get the most out of the tires you have and keep them running healthy for many trails and trips to work to come.

5 Spring Cleaning Tips & Tricks for Your Car

By Forward Look | March 21st, 2012 10:45 AM

Now that the warm weather appears to be here to stay, it’s time to get your Chrysler in tip-top shape. This year’s winter was comparatively mild (especially here in Detroit). And no, we’re not complaining. But if you live in a colder region, your car still took a beating. The wet sludge tracked inside your vehicle can wreak havoc on the floor mats and the carpet. A combination of mud and salt has the potential to do some serious corrosive damage to your car’s exterior. Here are some tips and tricks for sprucing your Chrysler up as the weather turns and keeping it in good shape. If you’re not a cold weather driver, these tips still apply. Spring cleaning is for everyone, after all.

• Clean the interior – Vacuum, dust, and get rid of any junk inside. It’s the same principle as doing a big “spring clean” in your house – throw away the junk and store what you don’t need until next winter.
• Shampoo the floor mats and carpet – Remove your floor mats and shampoo both the carpet and the mats. Test a small spot to ensure that your cleaning product and carpet are compatible.
• Wash the underbody – This is one of the most crucial steps for keeping your vehicle free of rust and corrosion. A trip to the car wash should do the trick, but make sure it’s one that blasts water underneath the car.
• Check or replace the windshield wipers – Winter weather can shorten the lifespan of your wipers. Wipe the blades completely clean and test them out. Driving without proper functioning wipers is not only annoying as a driver, it’s unsafe.
• Get a regular tune-up – Ensure that your air filter is clean, spark plugs are all good, and check your oil.

That’s our list, so far. What are your go-to methods for a good old fashioned Spring Cleaning?
