How often should I service my 2001 Plymouth Neon?
Take care of your Plymouth Neon and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Neon. 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 Neon, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2001 Plymouth Neon!
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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Neon perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2001 Plymouth Neon problems.
Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2001 Plymouth Neon and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. 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.
Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2001 Plymouth Neon? Batteries generally need to be replaced every 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. 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. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Neon) stuck in the middle of nowhere. 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 2001 Plymouth Neon running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2001 Neon. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2001 Plymouth Neon.
Periodic service to the steering system in your Plymouth Neon can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.

This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication.

If you fall behind on routine Plymouth Neon maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C.
