1987 Cadillac Fleetwood Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Cadillac Fleetwood, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your Fleetwood has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 Fleetwood maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1987 Cadillac Fleetwood!

Cadillac knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; 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. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Fleetwood perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1987 Cadillac Fleetwood problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1987 Cadillac Fleetwood 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Fleetwood. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1987 Cadillac Fleetwood? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Cadillac Fleetwood battery, and so can frequent short drives. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Fleetwood stranded. Your Cadillac Fleetwood won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1987 Cadillac Fleetwood running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1987 Fleetwood. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1987 Cadillac Fleetwood.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Cadillac Fleetwood can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Cadillac Fleetwood suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Cadillac Fleetwood's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Cadillac Fleetwood services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Cadillac Fleetwood engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning.
