2021 Mazda CX-5 Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Mazda CX-5 and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, your CX-5 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine CX-5 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2021 Mazda CX-5!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mazda, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your CX-5 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2021 Mazda CX-5 problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2021 Mazda CX-5 and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your CX-5's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2021 Mazda CX-5? 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 Mazda CX-5 battery. 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 CX-5) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mazda CX-5 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2021 Mazda CX-5's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2021 CX-5. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2021 Mazda CX-5.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mazda CX-5 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.

These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Mazda CX-5's steering and suspension system.

Without routine Mazda CX-5 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 Mazda CX-5 engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Is your Mazda CX-5 radiator in need of replacement? We can take care of that. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We'll fix it.
