2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 Maintenance

When it comes to your Mercedes-Benz GLA250, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your GLA250 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 GLA250 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250!

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. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes 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 GLA250 running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 problems.

Bring your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 GLA250’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 be ready for a new battery? 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 GLA250 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 GLA250) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz GLA250 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 engine.
