2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara Maintenance

When it comes to your Suzuki Grand Vitara, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your Grand Vitara has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Grand Vitara maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Suzuki, 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; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Grand Vitara's life, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 Grand Vitara’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara? 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). Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Suzuki Grand Vitara 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Grand Vitara) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Suzuki Grand Vitara won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara engine. See Suzuki's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2010 Grand Vitara in the chart at the top of this page.

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 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara.
