1989 Mazda MPV Maintenance Schedule

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 1989 Mazda MPV?

Here’s Why 1989 Mazda MPV Scheduled Maintenance Matters

When it comes to your Mazda MPV, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your MPV has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 MPV maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1989 Mazda MPV!

Mazda 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 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 MPV running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1989 Mazda MPV problems in the future.

Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your Mazda MPV

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1989 Mazda MPV 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 MPV'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 1989 Mazda MPV? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and 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 Mazda MPV battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! 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 Mazda MPV could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 1989 Mazda MPV's engine run smoother. To learn how often Mazda recommends you have the oil changed in your 1989 MPV, 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. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1989 Mazda MPV.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mazda MPV can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Mazda MPV 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 Mazda MPV's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Mazda MPV maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Mazda MPV engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Need a new Mazda MPV radiator? We’ve got your back. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 1989 Mazda MPV maintenance.

1989 Mazda MPV Maintenance Q&A

Take an active role in maintaining your 1989 Mazda MPV. Get answers to common Mazda MPV maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What do I do if I hit a pothole in my Mazda MPV? 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 Mazda MPV 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 Mazda MPV engines.
  •  Why are my Mazda dashboard lights on? 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 Mazda MPV to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
