1985 Dodge B150 Maintenance

You want your Dodge B150 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your B150 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 B150 maintenance. Just follow your 1985 Dodge B150 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Dodge, your vehicle manufacturer. 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; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like 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 B150's life, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1985 Dodge B150 problems later.

Bring your 1985 Dodge B150 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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 B150’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1985 Dodge B150 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your B150 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Dodge B150 battery. 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 B150) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Dodge B150 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
