When it comes to your Toyota RAV4, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance.

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Toyota, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like 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 RAV4's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1999 Toyota RAV4 problems later.

Bring your 1999 Toyota RAV4 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your RAV4's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 1999 Toyota RAV4 be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years.

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 RAV4 stranded. Your Toyota RAV4 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
