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. 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 oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your GLS450 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS450 problems later.

Bring your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS450 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your GLS450’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 Mercedes-Benz GLS450. 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).

Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz GLS450 battery, and so can frequent short drives.

Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty GLS450) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz GLS450 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
