1996 Cadillac DeVille Maintenance

Take care of your Cadillac DeVille and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, your DeVille could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine DeVille maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1996 Cadillac DeVille!

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; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your DeVille perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1996 Cadillac DeVille problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1996 Cadillac DeVille and our technicians will jump right in with 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 DeVille’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1996 Cadillac DeVille? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your DeVille may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Cadillac DeVille 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. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your DeVille stranded. Your Cadillac DeVille could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

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 1996 Cadillac DeVille running newer, longer.
