Maintenance for Your 1996 Chrysler New Yorker

What is the maintenance schedule for the 1996 Chrysler New Yorker?

Here’s Why 1996 Chrysler New Yorker Scheduled Maintenance Matters

Take care of your Chrysler New Yorker and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your New Yorker could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 1996 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. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your New Yorker perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1996 Chrysler New Yorker problems later.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Chrysler New Yorker Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1996 Chrysler New Yorker for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 1996 Chrysler New Yorker. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your New Yorker may need a replacement battery sooner. 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. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! 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 1996 Chrysler New Yorker'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 1996 New Yorker. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1996 Chrysler New Yorker.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Chrysler New Yorker 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 Chrysler New Yorker steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Components within your Chrysler New Yorker's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Chrysler New Yorker maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Chrysler New Yorker engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Chrysler New Yorker? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Chrysler New Yorker? 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 Chrysler New Yorker engines.
  • Can I ignore dashboard lights on my Chrysler? 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 Chrysler New Yorker to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
