It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1985 Dodge D150!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Dodge themselves.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1985 Dodge D150 and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your D150’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1985 Dodge D150 be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your D150 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 D150 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 D150 stranded. Your Dodge D150 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1985 Dodge D150 engine.
