2017 Cadillac Escalade Maintenance

When it comes to your Cadillac Escalade, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Escalade could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Escalade maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2017 Cadillac Escalade!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Cadillac, your vehicle manufacturer. 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, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Escalade running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2017 Cadillac Escalade problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2017 Cadillac Escalade 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Escalade. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 2017 Cadillac Escalade 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 Escalade may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Cadillac Escalade 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Escalade stranded. Your Cadillac Escalade could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2017 Cadillac Escalade engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2017 Escalade. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2017 Cadillac Escalade.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Cadillac Escalade can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide Cadillac Escalade steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Cadillac Escalade's steering and suspension system.

If you fall behind on routine Cadillac Escalade maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), 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. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Cadillac Escalade engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Is your Cadillac Escalade radiator in need of replacement? We’ve got your back. A/C smelling musty? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your spot for 2017 Cadillac Escalade maintenance.
