2014 Chevrolet Volt Maintenance

Take care of your Chevrolet Volt and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your Volt could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 Volt maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2014 Chevrolet Volt!

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; 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Volt's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2014 Chevrolet Volt problems in the future.

Bring your 2014 Chevrolet Volt to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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 Volt’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2014 Chevrolet Volt 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 Volt may need a replacement battery sooner. 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 Volt battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Volt stranded. Your Chevrolet Volt won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2014 Chevrolet Volt running newer, longer. To learn how often Chevrolet recommends you have the oil changed in your 2014 Volt, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. 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 2014 Chevrolet Volt? We can help with that, too!

These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Chevrolet Volt's steering and suspension system.
