2022 Ram 1500 Classic Maintenance

You want your Ram 1500 Classic to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your 1500 Classic has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your 1500 Classic, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2022 Ram 1500 Classic!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Ram, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; 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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your 1500 Classic running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2022 Ram 1500 Classic problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2022 Ram 1500 Classic and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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 1500 Classic. 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.

Could your 2022 Ram 1500 Classic be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. 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. 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 1500 Classic stranded. Your Ram 1500 Classic won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

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 2022 Ram 1500 Classic engine.
