2019 Chevrolet Malibu Maintenance

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. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Malibu maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2019 Chevrolet Malibu!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Chevrolet, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Malibu perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2019 Chevrolet Malibu problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2019 Chevrolet Malibu for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. 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.

Could your 2019 Chevrolet Malibu be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. 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. 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.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2019 Chevrolet Malibu running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2019 Malibu. 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 2019 Chevrolet Malibu? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Chevrolet Malibu can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, 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. Components within your Chevrolet Malibu's steering system require 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.
