2009 Honda Ridgeline Maintenance

You want your Honda Ridgeline to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Ridgeline 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 Ridgeline maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2009 Honda Ridgeline!

Honda 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. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include 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 Ridgeline running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2009 Honda Ridgeline problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2009 Honda Ridgeline 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 Ridgeline’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2009 Honda Ridgeline? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Honda Ridgeline 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Ridgeline) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Honda Ridgeline could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2009 Honda Ridgeline.
