1995 Dodge Ram 1500 Maintenance

You want your Dodge Ram 1500 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Ram 1500 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Ram 1500, 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 1995 Dodge Ram 1500!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Dodge themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Ram 1500's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 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 Ram 1500. 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 1995 Dodge Ram 1500. 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 Ram 1500 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Ram 1500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Dodge Ram 1500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

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 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 running newer, longer.
