What is the maintenance schedule for the 2016 Kia Forte Koup?

What to Know About 2016 Kia Forte Koup Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Kia Forte Koup, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Forte Koup could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Forte Koup maintenance. Just follow your 2016 Kia Forte Koup maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Kia themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Forte Koup running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2016 Kia Forte Koup problems.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Kia Forte Koup Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2016 Kia Forte Koup and our technicians will jump right in 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 Forte Koup's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2016 Kia Forte Koup. 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 Kia Forte Koup 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 Forte Koup) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Kia Forte Koup won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2016 Kia Forte Koup running newer, longer. See Kia's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2016 Forte Koup 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. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2016 Kia Forte Koup? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Kia Forte Koup 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, provide the appropriate Kia Forte Koup 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. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Kia Forte Koup's steering system with regular maintenance.

Without routine Kia Forte Koup maintenance, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Kia Forte Koup engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning.
