Overview of Essential Chevrolet S10 Blazer Maintenance Needs

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1990 Chevrolet S10 Blazer 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 S10 Blazer. 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.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1990 Chevrolet S10 Blazer. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to 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 Chevrolet S10 Blazer 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty S10 Blazer) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet S10 Blazer won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1990 Chevrolet S10 Blazer engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1990 S10 Blazer. 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1990 Chevrolet S10 Blazer? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Chevrolet S10 Blazer 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. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide the appropriate Chevrolet S10 Blazer steering and suspension services. 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 S10 Blazer's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Chevrolet S10 Blazer maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Chevrolet S10 Blazer engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning.

  • When should I have Chevrolet S10 Blazer alignment checked? You know your Chevrolet S10 Blazer better than anyone else, so you’ll know if something doesn’t feel right while driving. Have your alignment checked (and adjusted if necessary) as soon as you notice a pulling steering wheel to prevent suspension damage or uneven tire wear.

It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Chevrolet S10 Blazer engines.
  •  Why are my Chevrolet dashboard lights on? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason!
