2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet Bolt EV to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your Bolt EV 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 Bolt EV maintenance. Just follow your 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Chevrolet themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Bolt EV's life, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV and our technicians will jump right in 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 Bolt EV. 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.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV? In general, car batteries only last 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 Chevrolet Bolt EV 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 Bolt EV) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet Bolt EV could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Routine upkeep for your Chevrolet Bolt EV suspension and steering system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform Chevrolet Bolt EV 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 Chevrolet Bolt EV's steering system with regular maintenance.

Without routine Chevrolet Bolt EV maintenance, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.
