2010 Mercury Mountaineer Maintenance Schedule

When it comes to your Mercury Mountaineer, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Mountaineer could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 Mountaineer maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2010 Mercury Mountaineer!

Mercury 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. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; 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 Mountaineer running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2010 Mercury Mountaineer problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2010 Mercury Mountaineer for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Mountaineer. 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 2010 Mercury Mountaineer be ready for a new battery? 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mercury Mountaineer battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Mountaineer) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercury Mountaineer won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 2010 Mercury Mountaineer's engine run smoother. To learn how often Mercury recommends you have the oil changed in your 2010 Mountaineer, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2010 Mercury Mountaineer? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Mercury Mountaineer suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform Mercury Mountaineer suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Mercury Mountaineer's steering and suspension system.

If you skip recommended Mercury Mountaineer services, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Mercury Mountaineer cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Mercury Mountaineer? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We’re on it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 2010 Mercury Mountaineer maintenance and repairs.
