2020 Tesla S Maintenance Schedule

What is the maintenance schedule for the 2020 Tesla S?

Here’s Why 2020 Tesla S Scheduled Maintenance Matters

You want your Tesla S to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your S. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get S maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2020 Tesla S maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Tesla themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your S perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2020 Tesla S problems in the future.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Tesla S Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2020 Tesla S for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your S's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2020 Tesla S. 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 Tesla S 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! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty S) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Tesla S could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Routine upkeep for your Tesla S suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). 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, perform Tesla S suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Components within your Tesla S's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Tesla S maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Tesla S’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is your Tesla S radiator in need of replacement? We got it. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 2020 Tesla S maintenance.

  • When should I have Tesla S alignment checked? Check your car for pothole damage!

Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • Can I ignore dashboard lights on my Tesla? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason! As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your Tesla S to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
