What is a Maintenance Schedule, Anyway?

Your Honda maintenance schedule is a service plan designed by Honda Motor Company, and is intended to maximize the life of your vehicle while optimizing its fuel economy and its reliability. Typically found in your owner’s manual, this service plan will detail vehicle age and mileage milestones, along with the recommended services that accompany each one.

These services will range from simple oil changes and tire rotations to fluid flushes and spark plug changes.

While the Honda maintenance schedule for your vehicle will vary depending on your own personal driving habits and conditions, this schedule will act as your guide to keeping your vehicle in its best mechanical shape.

Keep Your Honda Like-New with These Easy Maintenance Tips

Our Honda service center is equipped to keep your car in its best shape, but as a vehicle owner, you also have to do your part to keep your vehicle in its best condition. Here are a few important tips that help keep your car looking and performing its best while it’s not here at our service center.

Check Your Fluids Weekly
We recommend performing a quick inspection of your fluids about once a week. This means checking your oil, and glancing at your fluid reservoirs to make sure that you have enough fluid for your vehicle to run its major mechanical components. Checking your fluids weekly can avoid potential mechanical failures, while spotting irregularities before they turn into breakdowns

Check Your Tires Weekly
Your tires are the only components of your vehicle that come into contact with the road, so it’s vital to check and make sure you have adequate tire pressure and tread depth. This fast and simple step can avoid potential blowouts and accidents.

Wax Your Vehicle Yearly
Because we live alongside the gulf, the salt minerals in the air mixed with the heat from the Florida sun can be extremely corrosive to your paint. Waxing your vehicle once per year, forms a protective layer around your paint, shielding it from corrosive contaminants.
