Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your Mercury Grand Marquis

Bring your 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Grand Marquis’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to 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. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercury Grand Marquis 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Grand Marquis stranded. Your Mercury Grand Marquis won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis running newer, longer. See Mercury's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2004 Grand Marquis in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis.

If you fall behind on routine Mercury Grand Marquis maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

2004 Mercury Grand Marquis Maintenance Questions

Take an active role in maintaining your 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis. Get answers to common Mercury Grand Marquis maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Mercury Grand Marquis alignment checked? 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 should I switch my Mercury Grand Marquis to 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 Mercury Grand Marquis engines.
  • Can Mercury 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 Mercury Grand Marquis to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
