2011 Hyundai Elantra Maintenance

You want your Hyundai Elantra to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Elantra. 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 Elantra maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2011 Hyundai Elantra!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Hyundai, your vehicle manufacturer. 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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Elantra perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2011 Hyundai Elantra problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2011 Hyundai Elantra for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Elantra. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2011 Hyundai Elantra. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Elantra may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Hyundai Elantra battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 Elantra) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Hyundai Elantra won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 2011 Hyundai Elantra's engine run smoother. See Hyundai's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2011 Elantra in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. 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 2011 Hyundai Elantra.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Hyundai Elantra can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide Hyundai Elantra steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Hyundai Elantra's steering and suspension system.

If you fall behind on routine Hyundai Elantra maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Hyundai Elantra cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Hyundai Elantra? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your spot for 2011 Hyundai Elantra maintenance.
