How often should I service my 1999 Chevrolet Metro?
You want your Chevrolet Metro to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your Metro 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. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Metro, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1999 Chevrolet Metro!
Chevrolet 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. 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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Metro's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1999 Chevrolet Metro problems in the future.
Bring your 1999 Chevrolet Metro to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Metro’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1999 Chevrolet Metro? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Metro may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Chevrolet Metro 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Metro) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet Metro won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1999 Chevrolet Metro's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1999 Metro. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1999 Chevrolet Metro.
Periodic service to the steering system in your Chevrolet Metro can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones.

This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Components within your Chevrolet Metro's steering system require regular maintenance.
