2021 Ram 3500 Maintenance Schedule

Take care of your Ram 3500 and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your 3500 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 3500 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2021 Ram 3500!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Ram themselves. 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 oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your 3500 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2021 Ram 3500 problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2021 Ram 3500 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your 3500. 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 2021 Ram 3500. 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). 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 3500 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty 3500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Ram 3500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2021 Ram 3500 running newer, longer. See Ram's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2021 3500 in the chart at the top of this page. 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2021 Ram 3500? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Ram 3500 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. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide Ram 3500 steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Ram 3500's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Ram 3500 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally!
