How often should I service my 1986 Chrysler New Yorker?
You want your Chrysler New Yorker to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your New Yorker. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your New Yorker, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1986 Chrysler New Yorker!
Chrysler 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. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; 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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your New Yorker running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1986 Chrysler New Yorker problems later.
Bring your 1986 Chrysler New Yorker to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your New Yorker’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1986 Chrysler New Yorker. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Chrysler New Yorker battery. 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 New Yorker stranded. Your Chrysler New Yorker won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1986 Chrysler New Yorker's engine run smoother. See Chrysler's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1986 New Yorker in the chart at the top 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 1986 Chrysler New Yorker.
Periodic service to the steering system in your Chrysler New Yorker can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform Chrysler New Yorker suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Components within your Chrysler New Yorker's steering system require regular maintenance.
