Auto maintenance is one of the best ways to proactively protect and maximize the value of your investment. When it comes to your routine maintenance or Kia auto repair, we recommend connecting with your local Kia service in Woodbridge—which will give your vehicle the trusted care it deserves.

Read on to learn more about routine car care for your Kia automobile, as well as where you can go to find Kia service coupons in your area. 

What Maintenance Do Kia Cars Need Each Year? 

Your Kia needs routine maintenance every year to keep it fully functional and drivable for the long term. Some key recommended maintenance tasks include: 

Oil Changes 

Contrary to popular belief, you might not need to do an oil change at the three month (or 30,000 mile) mark. Instead, you can go anywhere from 5,000-15,000 on average, per the California Department of Recycling. 

Many Kias function best with an oil change schedule of every 7,500-10,000 miles. However, if you have questions, we invite you to connect with your local dealership. They’ll be able to evaluate your Kia and determine which schedule is best to adhere to in your specific case. 

Tire Rotations and Replacement 

The average recommendation for tire rotation is every 5,000 miles (or every six months, whichever comes first). Our experts generally recommend rotating your Kia’s tires 5,700-7,000 miles. While booking a Kia service appointment may not seem necessary for such a basic maintenance task, we always recommend it. It keeps your process simplified and your vehicle as protected as possible in the process. 

Brake Jobs 

A basic brake job typically consists of rotor resurfacing, replacing the front brake pads and the rear pads, bleeding the brake lines, and checking the system for overall usability and safety. People can do it themselves. However, a single missed step can make the difference between a minor fender bender and a serious incident. For this reason, we always recommend seeking professional service to address Kia brake job needs. Our experts are always here to help. 

Not sure when to come in? We recommend replacement after about 50,000 miles. However, it’s best to come in before that if you notice a brake light illumination, hear squeaking or grinding, or notice that you have difficulty stopping.
