Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Chevrolet, your vehicle manufacturer.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 Silverado 1500’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. 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 Silverado 1500 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 Silverado 1500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
