This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Chevrolet themselves.

We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1996 Chevrolet C2500 Suburban?
