Half of effective GMC maintenance is setting up a suitable service schedule. If you wish to keep your pickup, SUV, or van in great working order for as long as possible, bear the following GMC service intervals in mind. You may need to adjust the usual servicing intervals based on your typical driving conditions; one of our technicians can help you devise the ideal vehicle upkeep schedule and stick to it like glue.
Check Tire Pressure Monthly
The tires of your truck keep you fixed to the road handling all manner of tricky terrain with ease. But your tires must always be maintained at the optimal PSI as outlined in your owner’s manual. You should check the pressure of each tire once a month to ensure this.
Check External Lights Monthly
Your headlights, taillights, turning signal lights, and brake lights are essential for visibility and communication with other drivers. Once a month, walk around your truck with the lights on, making sure the lights are all clean, undamaged, and shining brightly.
Rotate Tires Twice a Year
Your tires should be rotated every six months to make sure they don’t wear too unevenly. This extends tire lifespan and reduces the risk of tire trouble.
Check Wheel Alignment Twice a Year
While having your tires rotated, we can also measure the alignment of each wheel. If your wheels have come out of precise proper alignment, you’ll need to have them set straight once more for safe driving.
Change Motor Oil Twice a Year
Your vehicle’s powerful engine depends on the motor oil to stay in shape. It’s advisable to have your oil changed twice a year, and even more frequently if you put your truck through a lot of strain and tougher driving conditions.
Check Essential Fluids Twice a Year
All of your vehicle’s important fluids should be examined at least twice a year. When low or degrading, they’ll need to be topped up or flushed.
Inspect Brakes Twice a Year
Brakes should be professionally inspected at least every six months. Our technicians can make sure the brake fluid, lines, pads, rotors, and calipers are all in excellent shape.
Have the Engine Tuned Up Yearly
Your engine should be fine-tuned once a year or more. This ensures it’s working well with no nascent faults creeping up on you. A tune-up will usually include testing and sometimes changing spark plugs and ignition coils, plus replacing the air filter.
