What to Know About 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Mitsubishi Lancer, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your Lancer has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 Lancer maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Mitsubishi themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Lancer's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer problems in the future.

Overview of Essential Mitsubishi Lancer Maintenance Needs

Bring your 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Lancer’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 Mitsubishi Lancer. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Lancer may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mitsubishi Lancer battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 Lancer stranded. Your Mitsubishi Lancer won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2017 Lancer. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer.

Maintaining your Mitsubishi Lancer steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. 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 Lancer 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. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Mitsubishi Lancer's steering and suspension system.

Without routine Mitsubishi Lancer maintenance, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Mitsubishi Lancer cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new Mitsubishi Lancer radiator? 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 spot for 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer maintenance.

Don’t wait until something goes wrong with your car. Visit your nearest location for proactive maintenance today.
