2019 Ram 1500 Classic Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Ram 1500 Classic and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your 1500 Classic. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine 1500 Classic maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic!

Ram 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; 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 1500 Classic's life, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2019 Ram 1500 Classic problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic and an expert technician will begin by performing 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your 1500 Classic’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic be ready for a new battery? 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). 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 Ram 1500 Classic battery. 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 1500 Classic stranded. Your Ram 1500 Classic won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic engine. See Ram's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2019 1500 Classic 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. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic.
