2021 Chevrolet Equinox Maintenance Schedule

7,500-Mile Service

According to the Winslow Chevrolet dealership, your 2021 Equinox should have scheduled maintenance performed every 7,500 miles. During this first visit, the technicians will check the engine’s oil level and change the oil and oil filter. Motor oil is designed to lubricate and protect the engine for a long time, but it does deteriorate over time. Regular oil changes will significantly reduce engine wear.

When you bring your Chevrolet Equinox in for its 7,500-mile visit, the service technicians will check all the features that keep your SUV running smoothly, including inspecting the brakes and tires. They’ll examine the fluid levels and top them off if needed. They’ll also rotate the tires to ensure they last longer and check the condition of the wipers. Every maintenance visit includes these services, so you can rest assured your Equinox will continue to drive optimally and safely.

22,500-Mile Service

At 22,500 miles, your service technician will replace the cabin air filter. This filter helps reduce dust and pollen, allowing both the driver and passengers to breathe easier. It also ensures your air conditioning system runs efficiently.

45,000-Mile Service

At 45,000 miles, the engine air filter needs to be replaced. When this filter becomes clogged with dirt and debris, it can lead to sluggish performance and poor fuel economy. The engine requires clean air to perform optimally, and replacing the air filter ensures peak performance.

Additionally, during the 45,000-mile service, the transmission fluid will be changed. If your Equinox is equipped with all-wheel drive, the transfer case fluid will also need to be replaced. Changing the brake fluid is also necessary to ensure that your brakes continue to work properly and maintain safety on the road.

97,500-Mile Service

At 97,500 miles, the spark plugs will need to be replaced to prevent issues with rough idling, poor acceleration, and starting difficulties. This ensures that your Equinox runs smoothly and efficiently.

150,000-Mile Service

At 150,000 miles, the engine’s drive belts need to be checked. Signs of wear, such as cracks or stretching, indicate the need for replacement. The coolant system also requires a flush and refill to prevent corrosion buildup, and the coolant hoses should be inspected for wear. Keeping the coolant system in good condition helps protect your engine from extreme temperatures and potential damage.

Maintaining these key services will ensure your 2021 Chevrolet Equinox runs smoothly, efficiently, and safely for years to come.
