2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Silverado 1500. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Silverado 1500, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Chevrolet, your vehicle manufacturer. 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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Silverado 1500 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 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 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Silverado 1500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
