Volvo Brake Repair

Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care when you need brake repair work. Our brake repair services for your 1984 Volvo 242 include brake drum and rotor resurfacing, replacement of brake shoes and pads, wheel cylinder and brake caliper installation, and brake fluid exchange. Don't wait if you're experiencing brake squeaks or a loss of braking power. It can be dangerous to drive with unresponsive or compromised brakes. Consider, too, that lingering brake problems could cause more expensive parts to wear out, so it’s best to address brake symptoms early.

Battery, Starting & Charging Repair for Volvos

You and your 242 won’t be going anywhere if you can’t start your car. When you hear the dreaded “click” or just can’t get your engine going, our starting and charging services can diagnose the root of the issue in your Volvo 242. We’ll start with a thorough check of your battery, alternator, and starter to figure out where the root of your 242’s electrical problem lies. If something isn’t working properly, one of our technicians can explain options to remedy the problem, which may include replacing or repairing the starter or alternator in your 1984 Volvo 242.

Reliable Volvo Engine Repair

In the words of one of our lead technicians, Alex, “The engine is the lifeblood of America. It’s what moves this country, what built this country.” We couldn’t have said it better! A car without a functioning engine won’t be much help when you’ve got places to be. Out of all the 1984 Volvo 242 repair services we offer, engine repairs are some of the most important. We can replace mass air flow sensors, ignition coils, spark plugs and wires, thermostats, and more. If you suspect an issue with your engine, schedule a service appointment today.

Volvo 242 Radiator Repair Service

The radiator is an important piece of your vehicle’s cooling system. It assists in keeping your engine temperature within a safe range. When the radiator isn't working properly, your chances of an overheated (and broken down) engine go way up. Radiator repair is essential for long-term engine health, and you should replace the coolant/antifreeze in your 1984 Volvo 242 at the intervals recommended by Volvo. If you have coolant leaks under your car, an illuminated “low coolant” light, or a higher than usual engine temperature on your dashboard thermometer, these signs could indicate that your radiator needs service.

Questions About 1984 Volvo 242 Repair Service

  • Can Volvos get engine sludge? Yes, regular oil changes really ARE important! If you’re driving around with old motor oil, the broken-down fluid (and resulting debris) isn’t protecting your engine parts. In fact, it may even be causing slow damage to your Volvo 242’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.
  • Do I need to follow Volvo's recommended maintenance schedule? Use your manufacturer-recommended maintenance schedule to help prevent costly repairs later. Take care of your car, and it’ll take care of you. Follow the maintenance schedule written by Volvo to keep your car in its best possible condition. After all, the cheapest kind of repair is one that never has to happen!
  • How much information should I provide the technician about my Volvo? Listen to your car (and your gut!). As the person who drives your vehicle day in and day out, you know it best! When you notice something that feels different while driving or just feels “off” to you, trust your gut! Often, small issues can be easily fixed if they’re caught early. But, letting even minor issues linger can spell real trouble for your car down the road. Don’t wait to get a repair service for your Volvo 242.
