2016 Chevrolet Malibu Maintenance Schedule

Take care of your Chevrolet Malibu and it'll take care of you. 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. 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 Malibu maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2016 Chevrolet Malibu!

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. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Malibu running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2016 Chevrolet Malibu problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2016 Chevrolet Malibu 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Malibu. 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 2016 Chevrolet Malibu be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Chevrolet Malibu battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Chevrolet Malibu won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2016 Chevrolet Malibu running newer, longer. To learn how often Chevrolet recommends you have the oil changed in your 2016 Malibu, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2016 Chevrolet Malibu? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Chevrolet Malibu suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, perform Chevrolet Malibu suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Chevrolet Malibu's steering and suspension system.

Without routine Chevrolet Malibu maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Chevrolet Malibu cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Chevrolet Malibu radiator in need of replacement? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We’re on it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 2016 Chevrolet Malibu maintenance and repairs.
