Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1997 Mitsubishi 3000GT and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1997 Mitsubishi 3000GT? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. 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 Mitsubishi 3000GT battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your 3000GT stranded. Your Mitsubishi 3000GT could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
