Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 2022 Santa Cruz’s oil should be changed according to Hyundai’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your Santa Cruz may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Hyundai recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Hyundai Santa Cruz. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
