Chevrolet 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. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges.

Bring your 1997 Chevrolet C1500 Suburban to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your C1500 Suburban. 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 1997 Chevrolet C1500 Suburban be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty C1500 Suburban) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet C1500 Suburban won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
