Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Dodge Ramcharger Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Ramcharger's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Dodge Ramcharger battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Ramcharger stranded. Your Dodge Ramcharger 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 support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger running newer, longer. See Dodge's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1984 Ramcharger in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Dodge Ramcharger can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!).

Questions About 1984 Dodge Ramcharger Maintenance

Take an active role in maintaining your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger. Get answers to common Dodge Ramcharger maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Dodge Ramcharger alignment checked? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When does my Dodge Ramcharger need high mileage oil? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Dodge Ramcharger engines.
  • Can Dodge dashboard warning lights wait? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason! As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your Dodge Ramcharger to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
