1996 Ford Bronco Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Ford Bronco to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your Bronco has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 Bronco maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1996 Ford Bronco!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Ford, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Bronco's life, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1996 Ford Bronco problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1996 Ford Bronco for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with 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 Bronco. 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.

Could your 1996 Ford Bronco be ready for a new battery? 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Ford Bronco battery. 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Bronco) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Ford Bronco won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1996 Ford Bronco running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1996 Bronco.

We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1996 Ford Bronco.
