Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1989 GMC V2500 Suburban for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check.

We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1989 GMC V2500 Suburban. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your V2500 Suburban stranded. Your GMC V2500 Suburban won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
