Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Intrigue. 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.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Your Oldsmobile Intrigue could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
