1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser Maintenance

When it comes to your Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Cutlass Cruiser has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Cutlass Cruiser, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Oldsmobile themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Cutlass Cruiser running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser problems.

Bring your 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Cutlass Cruiser's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser? In general, car batteries only last 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 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Cutlass Cruiser) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
