1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van Maintenance

You want your Dodge Ram 2500 Van to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Ram 2500 Van could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Ram 2500 Van maintenance. Just follow your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Dodge, your vehicle manufacturer. 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 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 Ram 2500 Van's life, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van problems.

Bring your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Ram 2500 Van's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. 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 2500 Van battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Dodge Ram 2500 Van could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
