2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet Trailblazer to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Trailblazer. 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 Trailblazer maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Chevrolet themselves. 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; 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 Trailblazer running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer problems later.

Bring your 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Trailblazer. 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 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Chevrolet Trailblazer 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Trailblazer stranded. Your Chevrolet Trailblazer 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 prevent premature wear on your 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2009 Trailblazer. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Chevrolet Trailblazer can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide Chevrolet Trailblazer steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Chevrolet Trailblazer's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Chevrolet Trailblazer services, 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 Trailblazer cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Chevrolet Trailblazer? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer maintenance and repairs.
