2023 Volkswagen Atlas Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Volkswagen Atlas to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Atlas could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Atlas maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2023 Volkswagen Atlas!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Volkswagen, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Atlas perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2023 Volkswagen Atlas problems in the future.

Bring your 2023 Volkswagen Atlas to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Atlas’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2023 Volkswagen Atlas be ready for a new battery? 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 Volkswagen Atlas 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 Volkswagen Atlas could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 2023 Volkswagen Atlas's engine run smoother. See Volkswagen's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2023 Atlas in the chart at the top of this page. 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 2023 Volkswagen Atlas? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Volkswagen Atlas can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Volkswagen Atlas 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 Volkswagen Atlas's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Volkswagen Atlas 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 Volkswagen Atlas’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Volkswagen Atlas? We can take care of that. A/C smelling musty? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 2023 Volkswagen Atlas maintenance.
