What is the maintenance schedule for the 2014 Chevrolet Malibu?
You want your Chevrolet Malibu to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Malibu could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Malibu 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 2014 Chevrolet Malibu!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Chevrolet, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Malibu's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2014 Chevrolet Malibu problems in the future.
Bring your 2014 Chevrolet Malibu to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Malibu's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.
Could your 2014 Chevrolet Malibu be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Malibu may need a replacement battery sooner. 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 Chevrolet Malibu 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 Malibu stranded. Your Chevrolet Malibu could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2014 Chevrolet Malibu running newer, longer. To learn how often Chevrolet recommends you have the oil changed in your 2014 Malibu, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2014 Chevrolet Malibu? We can help with that, too!
