What is a Chevrolet Maintenance Plan?

Your Chevrolet maintenance plan is a detailed list of service recommendations laid out by the manufacturer. Found in your Owner’s Manual, this service plan will specify the various maintenance services that are recommended throughout your vehicles’ life and what mileage or age milestones they should be performed.

While your vehicle’s exact service needs will vary depending on your own personal driving habits and the environment in which your vehicle operates (heavy duty towing, driving off road, extensive city driving, etc., will increase your vehicle’s maintenance needs), this maintenance plan can serve as your guide to getting your vehicle the maintenance that it requires.

Our Favorite Maintenance Tips to Keep Repairs Costs Down

Now that we know the importance of staying on top of our Chevrolet service plan, now let’s find out a few easy ways to keep your Chevy in its best condition when it's not at the Service Center.

Check Your Fluids Regularly
Because your vehicle’s fluids are such a vital part of its operation, we recommend doing a brief visual inspection of your fluids once per week. This simple gesture will ensure that all of your fluids are at normal levels.

While late model Chevrolet vehicles are equipped with an oil life monitoring system, we still recommend checking your oil levels at least once per week to prevent engine damage.

Check Your Tire Pressure
Of all the safety features and measures that your vehicle is equipped with, your tires are the only components that actually come into contact with the road. Because of this fact, it's vital to check your tire pressure weekly to make sure you have adequate tread depth and air pressure.

Wash and Wax
Both summers and winters can be harsh on your vehicle. From salts on the road eating away at its clearcoat and undercarriage, to contaminants in the air that bake into its paint with the heat from the sun, your vehicle is constantly fighting environmental challenges.

Washing your vehicle regularly can prevent contaminants from eating away at your vehicle, and waxing your Chevy yearly forms a protective barrier around your paint to keep it in showroom condition!
