What to Know About 1998 Chevrolet Tracker Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet Tracker to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Tracker has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Tracker maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1998 Chevrolet Tracker!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Chevrolet themselves. 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Tracker's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1998 Chevrolet Tracker problems later.

Could your 1998 Chevrolet Tracker be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last 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 Tracker 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 Tracker) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet Tracker could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1998 Chevrolet Tracker engine. To learn how often Chevrolet recommends you have the oil changed in your 1998 Tracker, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. 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 1998 Chevrolet Tracker.

1998 Chevrolet Tracker Maintenance Questions

Take an active role in maintaining your 1998 Chevrolet Tracker. Get answers to common Chevrolet Tracker maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Chevrolet Tracker? You know your Chevrolet Tracker 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.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Chevrolet Tracker? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Chevrolet Tracker engines.
  • Can I ignore dashboard lights on my Chevrolet? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason! As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your Chevrolet Tracker to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
