Here’s Why 2021 Dodge Challenger Scheduled Maintenance Matters

Take care of your Dodge Challenger and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, 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 2021 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. 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Challenger's life, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2021 Dodge Challenger problems.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Dodge Challenger Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2021 Dodge Challenger 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. 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.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2021 Dodge Challenger. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Challenger 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 Dodge Challenger battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Challenger) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Dodge Challenger 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 help your 2021 Dodge Challenger'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 2021 Challenger. 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. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2021 Dodge Challenger.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Dodge Challenger can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system 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. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Dodge Challenger's steering and suspension system.

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. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Dodge Challenger’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Dodge Challenger? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 2021 Dodge Challenger maintenance.

2021 Dodge Challenger Maintenance Questions

Take an active role in maintaining your 2021 Dodge Challenger. Get answers to common Dodge Challenger maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Dodge Challenger alignment checked? You know your Dodge Challenger 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 switch my Dodge Challenger to high mileage oil? If your Dodge Challenger has ticked past 75,000 miles, consider switching to high mileage oil at your next oil change to give your engine what it needs to go another 75,000 (or more!). High mileage oil: make it a high priority!
  • Can Dodge dashboard warning lights wait? Don't ignore dashboard warning lights! Bring your Dodge Challenger in for a diagnostic code scan as soon as a dashboard warning light flashes on, whether it's your check engine or battery light. Dashboard lights alert you to trouble under the hood.
