Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1998 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs.

Could your 1998 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years.
