Here’s Why 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Scheduled Maintenance Matters

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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Sprinter 3500 running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 problems later.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 and a skilled technician will start the appointment with 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 Sprinter 3500’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Sprinter 3500 may need a replacement battery sooner. 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 Sprinter 3500 battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Sprinter 3500 stranded. Your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
