Overview of Essential Lexus RX450h Maintenance Needs

Bring your 2017 Lexus RX450h to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your RX450h’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2017 Lexus RX450h. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your RX450h may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Lexus RX450h battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your RX450h stranded. Your Lexus RX450h won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2017 Lexus RX450h engine. To learn how often Lexus recommends you have the oil changed in your 2017 RX450h, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. 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 2017 Lexus RX450h.

Routine upkeep for your Lexus RX450h suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.

These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement.
