Scheduled Maintenance for Your 1995 GMC G3500

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 1995 GMC G3500?

Here’s Why 1995 GMC G3500 Scheduled Maintenance Matters

Take care of your GMC G3500 and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your G3500. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine G3500 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1995 GMC G3500!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, GMC themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your G3500 running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1995 GMC G3500 problems in the future.

Overview of Essential GMC G3500 Maintenance Needs

Bring your 1995 GMC G3500 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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 G3500's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1995 GMC G3500? 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 GMC G3500 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your G3500 stranded. Your GMC G3500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1995 GMC G3500's engine run smoother. To learn how often GMC recommends you have the oil changed in your 1995 G3500, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. 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 1995 GMC G3500? We can help with that, too!

Maintaining your GMC G3500 steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform GMC G3500 suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your GMC G3500's steering system with regular maintenance.

1995 GMC G3500 Maintenance Questions

Take an active role in maintaining your 1995 GMC G3500. Get answers to common GMC G3500 maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my GMC G3500? 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 does my GMC G3500 need 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 GMC G3500 engines.
  • Can GMC dashboard warning lights wait? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason! As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your GMC G3500 to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
