Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 18,500 mi; coolant every 18,500 mi. The big-interval services (every 18,500 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2014 Ram Pro Master top in one area — the power train, 10 of 71 reports (14%), well ahead of the next concern. That matters, because the power train are also the target of recalls 20V-036 and 20V-582 on this vehicle — so the single most useful check before buying or servicing one is confirming they were actually performed. 4 of the reports describe a crash and 1 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the power train pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
