1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Maintenance Schedule

Take care of your Mitsubishi Mighty Max and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Mighty Max has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Mighty Max maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max!

Mitsubishi 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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Mighty Max perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max problems in the future.

Bring your 1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Mighty Max’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mitsubishi Mighty Max battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. 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 Mitsubishi Mighty Max 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 1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max's engine run smoother. See Mitsubishi's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1986 Mighty Max in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. 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 1986 Mitsubishi Mighty Max.
