Question:
Is Mobil 1 0W-40 Appropriate for American-Built Vehicles?
I own a Dodge SRT 10 and use the recommended Mobil 1 0W-40 synthetic oil. When it came time for the next oil change all I could find was the European formula. Is that the same as the recommended oil that I should be using?

Answer:
All bottles of Mobil 1 0W-40 carry the phrase "European Car Formula." This does not mean the product should only be used in vehicles of European origin. Mobil 1 0W-40 is the perfect choice for any vehicle requiring a 40 grade motor oil with outstanding wear protection.
