This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Plymouth themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Caravelle's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1987 Plymouth Caravelle problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1987 Plymouth Caravelle for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Caravelle'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 1987 Plymouth Caravelle? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and 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 Plymouth Caravelle battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 Caravelle stranded. Your Plymouth Caravelle won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
