2011 Mitsubishi Galant Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Mitsubishi Galant and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Galant. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Galant, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant maintenance schedule!

Mitsubishi 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; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Galant's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2011 Mitsubishi Galant problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with 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 Galant’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant? 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). 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. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mitsubishi Galant battery, and so can frequent short drives. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Galant stranded. Your Mitsubishi Galant 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 support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant running newer, longer. See Mitsubishi's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2011 Galant in the chart at the top of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mitsubishi Galant can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide the appropriate Mitsubishi Galant steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Mitsubishi Galant's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Mitsubishi Galant services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Mitsubishi Galant cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Mitsubishi Galant radiator in need of replacement? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re on it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 2011 Mitsubishi Galant maintenance and repairs.
