1998 Plymouth Neon Maintenance

Take care of your Plymouth Neon and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Neon 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. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Neon maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1998 Plymouth Neon!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Plymouth 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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Neon running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1998 Plymouth Neon problems later.

Bring your 1998 Plymouth Neon to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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 Neon's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1998 Plymouth Neon. 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. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Plymouth Neon battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Neon stranded. Your Plymouth Neon won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
