2017 Chevrolet Traverse Maintenance

Take care of your Chevrolet Traverse and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your Traverse has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 Traverse maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2017 Chevrolet Traverse!

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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Traverse perform better, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2017 Chevrolet Traverse problems.

Bring your 2017 Chevrolet Traverse to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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 Traverse’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2017 Chevrolet Traverse be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Traverse may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Chevrolet Traverse 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Traverse stranded. Your Chevrolet Traverse won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2017 Chevrolet Traverse engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2017 Traverse. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2017 Chevrolet Traverse? We can help with that, too!

Maintaining your Chevrolet Traverse steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide the appropriate Chevrolet Traverse steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Components within your Chevrolet Traverse's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Chevrolet Traverse maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Chevrolet Traverse cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Chevrolet Traverse radiator in need of replacement? We’ve got your back. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We'll fix it.
