It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine S550 maintenance. Just follow your 2013 Mercedes-Benz S550 maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Mercedes-Benz themselves. 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your S550's life, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2013 Mercedes-Benz S550 problems later.

Bring your 2013 Mercedes-Benz S550 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your S550. 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 2013 Mercedes-Benz S550 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Mercedes-Benz S550 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
