Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1989 Dodge W350 and our technicians will jump right in 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.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1989 Dodge W350? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your W350 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Dodge W350 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. 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 W350 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 help your 1989 Dodge W350's engine run smoother. To learn how often Dodge recommends you have the oil changed in your 1989 W350, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1989 Dodge W350.

Maintaining your Dodge W350 steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Dodge W350? 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 should I switch my Dodge W350 to 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 W350 engines.
  •  Why are my Dodge dashboard lights on? It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible. An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should. Letting problems linger can mean bad news for your Dodge W350, so be sure to take your car in for service as soon as you notice an illuminated dashboard light
