What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 1999 Pontiac Montana?
You want your Pontiac Montana to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Montana has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Montana maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1999 Pontiac Montana!
Pontiac knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Montana's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1999 Pontiac Montana problems later.
Bring your 1999 Pontiac Montana to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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 Montana. 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.
Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1999 Pontiac Montana. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Montana may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Pontiac Montana 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 Pontiac Montana 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 prevent premature wear on your 1999 Pontiac Montana engine.

Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1999 Pontiac Montana.
