2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 Maintenance

You want your Mercedes-Benz GL450 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your GL450 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. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your GL450, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 maintenance schedule!

Mercedes-Benz knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your GL450 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your GL450. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. 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 GL450 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your GL450 stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz GL450 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450's engine run smoother.
