When it comes to your Mazda B2000, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your B2000. 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 B2000 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1986 Mazda B2000!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Mazda themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; 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. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your B2000 perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1986 Mazda B2000 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1986 Mazda B2000 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check.

Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your B2000'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 1986 Mazda B2000? In general, car batteries only last three to five years.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your B2000 stranded. Your Mazda B2000 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
