Choosing 2019 Toyota Sequoia Tires

Apart from finding the right tire size, you also want to consider a handful of other factors when buying new Toyota Sequoia tires like which tire brands you like most and where you drive. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Many drivers who live in states that experience all four seasons choose to purchase two sets of tires: one set for winter, one set for summer. Other drivers prefer to purchase one all-season set to limit trips to the tire shop and make sure their vehicle is prepared in the rain, sleet, snow, or sun!

Your personal driving style is the next factor to consider. If you're a diehard off-roader, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't leave the paved path. Browse Toyota Sequoia tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

Toyota Sequoia Alignment Questions

  • Why does my Toyota engine sound different?  Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Toyota Sequoia engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change.

Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Toyota Sequoia engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided.

But temporary or emergency sealants could possibly damage TPMS sensors, and in some cases may even void the warranty on your Bridgestone or Firestone tires. If your tire needs extensive repair, sealant can add time and labor costs to the process.

Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
  • How long can I expect my car battery to last?  Car battery lifespan varies depending on a few factors, including driving conditions, accessories, how well it’s maintained, and the type of battery. On average, a car battery lasts about three to five years.

If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2019 Toyota Sequoia

  • What does it mean if my Toyota Sequoia oil light comes on?  Your Toyota Sequoia oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change.

  • Can I change my Toyota oil on my own?  Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Toyota Sequoia spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?  You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.

Questions About 2019 Toyota Sequoia Engine Tune-Ups

  • What happens if my Toyota Sequoia spark plugs fail? When it’s time to replace the spark plugs, don’t delay. These small (but vital!) parts provide the electric spark that your car needs in order to start, and old spark plugs can prevent your car from starting at all. Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so.
  • What should I do if I see leaks under my Sequoia? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Toyota Sequoia. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.

2019 Sequoia Toyota Steering & Suspension Services

When you first drove your 2019 Toyota Sequoia, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Sequoia feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2019 Toyota Sequoia, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission.

Questions About 2019 Toyota Sequoia Steering & Suspension

  • What can cause my Toyota Sequoia to have a bouncy ride?  Excessive bouncing in your Toyota Sequoia might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Sequoia's nose dive down when I hit the brakes?  The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Sequoia's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Toyota's suspension?  Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, nd also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

A/C Service for Your 2019 Toyota Sequoia

Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your 2019 Toyota Sequoia A/C problems. During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2019 Toyota Sequoia’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test.

While your 2019 Toyota Sequoia’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Toyota guidelines. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2019 Toyota Sequoia A/C Systems

  • Why do I get hot air from my Sequoia A/C?  An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Sequoia’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Sequoia’s A/C to work?  If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Sequoia’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

2019 Toyota Sequoia Transmission Service

Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. 2019 Toyota Sequoia transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Toyota Sequoia transmission problems linger and your could suffer a loss in fuel efficiency or discover that your Sequoia’s not even driveable. Our technicians are trained to service 2019  Toyota Sequoia transmission systems according to vehicle manufacturer recommendations. Schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign of transmission problems to help keep your engine running at peak performance.

2019 Toyota Sequoia Transmission Questions & Answers

  • Does my Sequoia's transmission fluid need to be inspected?  Regularly checking and exchanging your 2019 Sequoia’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Toyota's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Toyota Sequoia leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Toyota Sequoia can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Sequoia ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Can I still drive my Toyota Sequoia if it has a transmission fluid leak?  Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.

  • When should I get a complete vehicle inspection for my Toyota Sequoia?  You should bring your Toyota Sequoia in for a full vehicle inspection if something weird happens and you can’t find the problem.

2019 Toyota Sequoia Radiator Service

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 2019 Toyota Sequoia is essential for long-term engine health. In fact, Toyota recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad.

If you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start with a comprehensive inspection of your Toyota Sequoia’s cooling system. Then, we’ll move on to a machine-powered coolant exchange. Finally, we’ll refill the flushed sealants, lubricants and chemicals, then do a pressure check to catch any possible leaks. From the heater core to the radiator cap, we’re here to give your 2019 Toyota Sequoia the top-notch service it needs.

Questions About Toyota Sequoia Radiators
