2019 Fiat 124 Spider Maintenance

When it comes to your Fiat 124 Spider, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your 124 Spider has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 124 Spider maintenance. Just follow your 2019 Fiat 124 Spider maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Fiat, 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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your 124 Spider perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2019 Fiat 124 Spider problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2019 Fiat 124 Spider and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your 124 Spider. 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.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2019 Fiat 124 Spider? 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 Fiat 124 Spider battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty 124 Spider) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Fiat 124 Spider 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 2019 Fiat 124 Spider's engine run smoother. To learn how often Fiat recommends you have the oil changed in your 2019 124 Spider, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. 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 2019 Fiat 124 Spider? We can help with that, too!
