What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 2012 Dodge Challenger?
When it comes to your Dodge Challenger, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Challenger. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Challenger maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2012 Dodge Challenger maintenance schedule!
Dodge 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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Challenger perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2012 Dodge Challenger problems later.
Bring your 2012 Dodge Challenger to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Challenger. 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.
Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2012 Dodge Challenger? 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). 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 Dodge Challenger 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 Challenger stranded. Your Dodge Challenger won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2012 Dodge Challenger running newer, longer. To learn how often Dodge recommends you have the oil changed in your 2012 Challenger, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. 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 2012 Dodge Challenger? We can help with that, too!
Maintaining your Dodge Challenger steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform Dodge Challenger suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Dodge Challenger's steering system with regular maintenance.
If you fall behind on routine Dodge Challenger maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Dodge Challenger cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new Dodge Challenger radiator? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your spot for 2012 Dodge Challenger maintenance.
