Your Guide to 1990 Dodge W150 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Dodge W150 to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your W150. 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 W150 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 1990 Dodge W150 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Dodge, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your W150 perform better, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 1990 Dodge W150 problems.

Overview of Essential Dodge W150 Maintenance Needs

Bring your 1990 Dodge W150 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your W150's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1990 Dodge W150? 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. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Dodge W150 battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 W150) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Dodge W150 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 prevent premature wear on your 1990 Dodge W150 engine. See Dodge's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1990 W150 in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1990 Dodge W150? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Dodge W150 can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. 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 W150 suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Dodge W150's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Dodge W150 services, 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 W150’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is your Dodge W150 radiator in need of replacement? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 1990 Dodge W150 maintenance.

  • What do I do if I hit a pothole in my Dodge W150? Watch out for pothole damage. If your 1990 W150 is pulling to one side or the other, your tires or suspension system could be calling out for help.
