VEHICLE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE | ST. MARYS BUICK GMC

About Us

Regular vehicle maintenance is essential to ensure your Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, or GMC stays in top-running condition. With supply chain issues and long waits for new vehicles, everyone seems to be driving their cars for longer, so maintenance has become even more critical. We recommend bringing your Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, or GMC vehicle in for service at every 10,000-kilometer mark or every six months for regular maintenance.


Here, we spell out how often you should service your Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, or GMC vehicle and the specific maintenance performed at each interval. Keep in mind that these are general guidelines. Review your owner's manual for your particular car's recommended service schedule.
