2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Maintenance Schedule

You want your Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Outlander PHEV. 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 Outlander PHEV maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mitsubishi, your vehicle manufacturer. 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; however, recommended maintenance usually includes 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 Outlander PHEV running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV problems later.

Bring your 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in 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 Outlander PHEV’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV 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. 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 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV 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 2018 Outlander PHEV. 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.
