2012 Toyota Tundra Maintenance

Take care of your Toyota Tundra and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your Tundra could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Tundra maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2012 Toyota Tundra!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Toyota themselves. 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. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Tundra's life, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2012 Toyota Tundra problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 Toyota Tundra for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 Tundra'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 2012 Toyota Tundra. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to 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 Toyota Tundra 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 Tundra) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Toyota Tundra won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2012 Toyota Tundra engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2012 Tundra. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2012 Toyota Tundra? We can help with that, too!
