Your 1999 Dakota’s oil should be changed according to Dodge’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Dakota in the above table. Your Dakota may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Dodge if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Dodge Dakota. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
