Are you sure your coolant is orange? I would guess you have factory fill in your 2009. I wouldn't worry about what they gave you as the coolant has been the same for Dodge for quite a while now. There are not standard colors to the coolant type.

It uses hybrid organic type (HOAT) coolant. You don't want to mix dexcool or traditional ethylene glycol with it.

Zerex G-05 is HOAT. Their web page says Dodge uses this as their factory fill, but dyed differently.
