2013 Buick LaCrosse Maintenance Schedule

When it comes to your Buick LaCrosse, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your LaCrosse. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your LaCrosse, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2013 Buick LaCrosse!

Buick knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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 oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your LaCrosse perform better, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2013 Buick LaCrosse problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2013 Buick LaCrosse for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your LaCrosse's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2013 Buick LaCrosse? 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Buick LaCrosse 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 LaCrosse) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Buick LaCrosse won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 2013 Buick LaCrosse's engine run smoother. See Buick's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2013 LaCrosse 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. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2013 Buick LaCrosse? We can help with that, too!

You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Buick LaCrosse suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Buick LaCrosse's steering and suspension system.

If you skip recommended Buick LaCrosse 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.
