Your Guide to 1987 Cadillac Cimarron Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Cadillac Cimarron and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Cimarron. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Cimarron maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 1987 Cadillac Cimarron maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Cadillac, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Cimarron's life, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 1987 Cadillac Cimarron problems.

Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your Cadillac Cimarron

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1987 Cadillac Cimarron and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Cimarron’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1987 Cadillac Cimarron? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Cadillac Cimarron battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Cadillac Cimarron won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1987 Cadillac Cimarron running newer, longer. To learn how often Cadillac recommends you have the oil changed in your 1987 Cimarron, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1987 Cadillac Cimarron.

Routine upkeep for your Cadillac Cimarron suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide Cadillac Cimarron steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Cadillac Cimarron's steering system with regular maintenance.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Cadillac Cimarron engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning.

Take an active role in maintaining your 1987 Cadillac Cimarron. Get answers to common Cadillac Cimarron maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Cadillac Cimarron alignment checked? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I switch my Cadillac Cimarron to high mileage oil? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Cadillac Cimarron engines.
  •  Why are my Cadillac dashboard lights on? Don't ignore dashboard warning lights! Bring your Cadillac Cimarron in for a diagnostic code scan as soon as a dashboard warning light flashes on, whether it's your check engine or battery light. Dashboard lights alert you to trouble under the hood.
