It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Borrego maintenance.

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Kia themselves.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Kia Borrego Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2009 Kia Borrego for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Borrego’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2009 Kia Borrego be ready for a new battery? 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). 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Kia Borrego battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Borrego) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Kia Borrego won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2009 Kia Borrego engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2009 Borrego. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2009 Kia Borrego.

Routine upkeep for your Kia Borrego 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. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Kia Borrego steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Kia Borrego's steering and suspension system.

If you skip recommended Kia Borrego services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Kia Borrego cooling, heating, and climate control system.

Take an active role in maintaining your 2009 Kia Borrego. Get answers to common Kia Borrego maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Kia Borrego alignment checked? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When does my Kia Borrego need high mileage oil? If your Kia Borrego has ticked past 75,000 miles, consider switching to high mileage oil at your next oil change to give your engine what it needs to go another 75,000 (or more!). High mileage oil: make it a high priority!
  • Can Kia dashboard warning lights wait? Don't ignore dashboard warning lights! Bring your Kia Borrego in for a diagnostic code scan as soon as a dashboard warning light flashes on, whether it's your check engine or battery light. Dashboard lights alert you to trouble under the hood.
