1990 GMC C2500 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your GMC C2500 to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your C2500 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. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine C2500 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1990 GMC C2500!

GMC knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your C2500 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1990 GMC C2500 problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1990 GMC C2500 and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your C2500's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1990 GMC C2500. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. 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 GMC C2500 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your C2500 stranded. Your GMC C2500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
