1997 Suzuki Swift Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Suzuki Swift to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Swift. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Swift maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1997 Suzuki Swift!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Suzuki, 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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Swift's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1997 Suzuki Swift problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1997 Suzuki Swift and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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 Swift’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1997 Suzuki Swift? 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. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Suzuki Swift battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. 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 Suzuki Swift won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 1997 Suzuki Swift's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1997 Swift. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1997 Suzuki Swift.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Suzuki Swift 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. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Suzuki Swift 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 Suzuki Swift's steering and suspension system.

If you skip recommended Suzuki Swift services, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Suzuki Swift cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new Suzuki Swift radiator? We can take care of that. A/C smelling musty? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 1997 Suzuki Swift maintenance.

So visit us regularly, or visit us urgently. Many locations are open on weekends and in the evening.
