2017 Subaru Crosstrek Maintenance Schedule

You want your Subaru Crosstrek to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Crosstrek. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Crosstrek, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Subaru, your vehicle manufacturer. 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 fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Crosstrek perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2017 Subaru Crosstrek problems later.

Bring your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Crosstrek's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Crosstrek may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Subaru Crosstrek 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 Subaru Crosstrek won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek running newer, longer. See Subaru's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2017 Crosstrek in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek.

Routine upkeep for your Subaru Crosstrek suspension and steering system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Subaru Crosstrek 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. Components within your Subaru Crosstrek's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Subaru Crosstrek services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Don’t sweat it, though! Our technicians can take care of those issues, too. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we have what it takes to provide top-notch service for your Subaru Crosstrek engine heating and cooling systems, as well as your air conditioning. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Subaru Crosstrek? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re on it.
