You want your Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your CLA45 AMG has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more.

Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mercedes-Benz, 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; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your CLA45 AMG's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG problems in the future.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with 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 CLA45 AMG’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG? In general, car batteries only last three to 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. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your CLA45 AMG stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG 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 help your 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG'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 2014 CLA45 AMG. 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG? We can help with that, too!
