Scheduled Maintenance for Your 1995 Mercury Cougar

What is the maintenance schedule for the 1995 Mercury Cougar?

Your Guide to 1995 Mercury Cougar Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Mercury Cougar to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Cougar could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Cougar 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 1995 Mercury Cougar!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mercury, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Cougar running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1995 Mercury Cougar problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1995 Mercury Cougar and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Cougar. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 1995 Mercury Cougar be ready for a new battery? 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). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Cougar may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercury Cougar battery, and so can frequent short drives. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Cougar) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercury Cougar won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1995 Mercury Cougar engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1995 Cougar. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1995 Mercury Cougar.

Routine upkeep for your Mercury Cougar suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). 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, provide Mercury Cougar steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Mercury Cougar's steering and suspension system.

If you skip recommended Mercury Cougar services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too.

  • When should I have Mercury Cougar alignment checked? Watch out for pothole damage. If your 1995 Cougar is pulling to one side or the other, your tires or suspension system could be calling out for help.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Mercury Cougar? 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 Mercury Cougar engines.
  • Can Mercury dashboard warning lights wait? It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible. An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should. Letting problems linger can mean bad news for your Mercury Cougar, so be sure to take your car in for service as soon as you notice an illuminated dashboard light
