What tires are best for a 2002 Nissan Frontier? Check out the following tire brands and types.
Other than getting the proper tire size, you also want to consider a handful of other factors when buying new Nissan Frontier tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Many drivers who live in states that experience all four seasons choose to purchase two sets of tires: one for winter and one for summer. Other drivers buy one set of all-season tires instead. That way they don't have to return to the tire shop and their vehicle is always ready for sun, rain, and light snow!
Your personal driving style is the next factor to consider. If you're a big off-roading fan who forges paths where others can't, you have very different needs than a long-distance commuter who sticks to the highway. Talk to a tire technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care for help choosing the best tire for you, or start shopping for Nissan Frontier tires online.

Your 2002 Frontier’s oil should be changed according to Nissan’s recommended oil change intervals. Outside of Nissan-recommended oil change intervals, your Frontier may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Nissan if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances.
Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Nissan Frontier. Consult Nissan's recommendations to select the right 2002 Frontier oil and talk with a teammate to learn more about our oil options: Quaker State® Advanced Durability™ conventional oil, Pennzoil® High Mileage Vehicle® motor oil, Pennzoil Platinum® Full Synthetic motor oil with PurePlus™ Technology, and Shell Rotella® heavy-duty engine oil. During an oil change, one of our techs will change your Frontier’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, check all of your other filters, top-off important fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle.

Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your Frontier’s power on the road. Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Nissan Frontier engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. Another service option pays special attention to the filters in your Frontier. Specifically, we replace the fuel filter and air filter. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your Frontier’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Frontier can determine what kind of service it needs. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

When you first drove your 2002 Nissan Frontier, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy.

We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Frontier suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work.
Our technicians will work to solve your 2002 Nissan Frontier A/C problems to the best of their ability. During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2002 Nissan Frontier’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure.
When we perform an A/C repair on your 2002 Nissan Frontier, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll use Nissan’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant.
The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Frontier’s performance. 2002 Nissan Frontier transmission issues could include shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood.

Schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign of transmission problems to help keep your engine running at peak performance.
When you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care for any service, we’ll automatically do a multi-point Courtesy Check. To start, one of our technicians will check the battery in your Nissan Frontier to see how much charge it has left – and determine if it may fail in the near future. After we’ve inspected your Nissan Frontier’s battery, we’ll visually inspect your windshield wiper blades, lights, filters, alignment, tires, hoses, belts and fluid levels.
While every visit to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care includes a Courtesy Check, we also offer an in-depth Complete Vehicle Inspection for your 2002 Nissan Frontier. A Complete Vehicle Inspection includes everything in a Courtesy Check, plus an examination (by hand!) of your steering, suspension, brakes, and exhaust system.

Regular, proactive service on the radiator in your 2002 Nissan Frontier is essential for long-term engine health. Nissan recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you notice a low coolant light or higher-than-normal engine temperatures on your dashboard, or if you spot coolant leaks coming from your car.
At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start by performing a thorough inspection of your Nissan Frontier cooling system. Then, we’ll move on to a machine-powered coolant exchange. Finally, we’ll refill the flushed sealants, lubricants and chemicals, then do a pressure check to catch any possible leaks. If you’re about to lose your cool over a too-hot engine, rest assured that your 2002 Nissan Frontier is in good hands at Firestone Complete Auto Care.
