Kia Maintenance Schedule | Mission Viejo Kia

Routine Kia Maintenance

Kia prides themselves on building quality vehicles that are meant to last. However, nothing extends the life of a car or SUV like taking care of the routine maintenance. If you are looking for the exact maintenance schedule for your specific make and model, consult your owner's manual, but here are the basic milestones for most Kia vehicles. We also offer some seasonal maintenance tips for your Kia vehicle to make sure you're prepared for every season.

Aside from the items on the Kia service schedule that should be performed at our service center, there are many things you can do at home to ensure your car or SUV is running in top form.

    • Check tire pressure and tread regularly: Low tire pressure can shorten tire life and uneven wear on your tread can signal an alignment issue.
    • Check for indicator lights: The check engine and other indicator lights can signal an issue right when it happens. If you contact our service center quickly, you may be able to avoid complicating the issue by driving with it.
    • Check exterior lights: Not only is it illegal to drive without head and tail lights in the dark, it is a serious safety risk.
    • Check windshield wipers and fluid: A sudden rain can turn into a huge safety concern if your wipers aren't in good shape, and without windshield wiper fluid, a long road trip can turn into a game of peek-a-boo as you try to find a part of the windshield to see though.

If you have questions about these or find an issue with your Kia, we will be happy to help you at Mission Viejo Kia. Come in and see us today!
