What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 2018 Smart Fortwo?
Take care of your Smart Fortwo and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your Fortwo has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Fortwo maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2018 Smart Fortwo maintenance schedule!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Smart, 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, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Fortwo running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2018 Smart Fortwo problems.
Bring your 2018 Smart Fortwo to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in 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 Fortwo’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2018 Smart Fortwo. 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 Smart Fortwo battery, and so can frequent short drives. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! 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 Smart Fortwo won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
Maintaining your Smart Fortwo steering and suspension system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.
