Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2017 Chevrolet Malibu for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Malibu’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2017 Chevrolet Malibu? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Malibu may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Malibu) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet Malibu could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 2017 Chevrolet Malibu's engine run smoother. See Chevrolet's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2017 Malibu in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. 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 2017 Chevrolet Malibu? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Chevrolet Malibu suspension and steering system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle.

Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Chevrolet Malibu's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Chevrolet Malibu services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Chevrolet Malibu’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too.
