2019 Cadillac XTS Maintenance

You want your Cadillac XTS to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your XTS. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. There's no need to guess when it's time to get XTS maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2019 Cadillac XTS!

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; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of 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 XTS running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2019 Cadillac XTS problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2019 Cadillac XTS for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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 XTS. 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.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2019 Cadillac XTS. 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). Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. 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 Cadillac XTS 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 XTS) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Cadillac XTS 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 2019 Cadillac XTS engine. See Cadillac's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2019 XTS 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 2019 Cadillac XTS? We can help with that, too!
