How often should I service my 1999 Ford Crown Victoria?
Take care of your Ford Crown Victoria and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Crown Victoria has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Crown Victoria maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1999 Ford Crown Victoria!
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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Crown Victoria running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 1999 Ford Crown Victoria problems.
Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1999 Ford Crown Victoria for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Crown Victoria’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Could your 1999 Ford Crown Victoria be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Crown Victoria may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Ford Crown Victoria 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. 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 Ford Crown Victoria 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 help your 1999 Ford Crown Victoria's engine run smoother. See Ford's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1999 Crown Victoria 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. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil.

This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication.

If you skip recommended Ford Crown Victoria services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C.
