2020 Buick Encore Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Buick Encore, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Encore could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Encore maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2020 Buick Encore maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Buick themselves. 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; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Encore perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2020 Buick Encore problems in the future.

Bring your 2020 Buick Encore to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Encore's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2020 Buick Encore be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Encore may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Buick Encore 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Encore) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Buick Encore won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2020 Buick Encore engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2020 Encore. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2020 Buick Encore.

Routine upkeep for your Buick Encore suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Buick Encore suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Buick Encore's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Buick Encore services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too.
