1999 Plymouth Neon Maintenance

When it comes to your Plymouth Neon, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your Neon has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Neon maintenance. Just follow your 1999 Plymouth Neon maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Plymouth themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; 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. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Neon perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 1999 Plymouth Neon problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1999 Plymouth Neon and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Neon’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1999 Plymouth Neon be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Plymouth Neon battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Plymouth Neon won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1999 Plymouth Neon running newer, longer. See Plymouth's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1999 Neon in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1999 Plymouth Neon.

Routine upkeep for your Plymouth Neon suspension and steering system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Plymouth Neon suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Plymouth Neon's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Plymouth Neon services, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Plymouth Neon engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning.
