You bought your Chevrolet to get you where you need to go. You bought it because you know that for over 100 years, Chevrolet has been proven to be reliable, dependable, durable, and safe. The key to keeping it that way is with regular Chevy service and maintenance.

Service Schedule

Every Chevrolet model has a detailed service schedule with factory-recommended intervals. The prescribed intervals ensure that your vehicle continues to perform well, is fuel-efficient, and lasts longer. The service schedule for your particular model is in your Chevrolet Owner’s Manual. You can also find information on service intervals and maintenance on our website, or you can phone us, and we will answer all your questions.
