2017 Honda Ridgeline Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Honda Ridgeline and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Ridgeline. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Ridgeline maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2017 Honda Ridgeline!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Honda, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes 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 Ridgeline's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2017 Honda Ridgeline problems in the future.

Bring your 2017 Honda Ridgeline to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Ridgeline's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2017 Honda Ridgeline 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Honda Ridgeline battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! 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.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2017 Honda Ridgeline engine. See Honda's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2017 Ridgeline in the chart at the top 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 2017 Honda Ridgeline? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Honda Ridgeline suspension and steering system 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. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Honda Ridgeline suspension and steering services. 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 Honda Ridgeline's steering and suspension system.

If you fall behind on routine Honda Ridgeline 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!). We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Honda Ridgeline’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Honda Ridgeline? We can take care of that. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We’re on it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 2017 Honda Ridgeline maintenance.
