GMC knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Sierra 3500 HD's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2018 GMC Sierra 3500 HD problems in the future.

Bring your 2018 GMC Sierra 3500 HD to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Sierra 3500 HD stranded.
