2017 Buick LaCrosse Maintenance Schedule

You want your Buick LaCrosse to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your LaCrosse could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine LaCrosse maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2017 Buick LaCrosse!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Buick themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your LaCrosse's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2017 Buick LaCrosse problems later.

Bring your 2017 Buick LaCrosse to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your LaCrosse’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2017 Buick LaCrosse? 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). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your LaCrosse may need a replacement battery sooner. 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 Buick LaCrosse battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty LaCrosse) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Buick LaCrosse 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 2017 Buick LaCrosse engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2017 LaCrosse. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. 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 2017 Buick LaCrosse? We can help with that, too!

Trust our technicians to inspect system components 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 might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Buick LaCrosse’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too.
