Following a car maintenance checklist is an easy way to keep your car running great. It also helps keep your car from needing unnecessary and costly repairs. You spent a lot of hard earned cash to buy your car, so keep it running great and avoid a breakdown.

Car Maintenance Checklist

Some maintenance items you probably already know, but make it a point to do them regularly. The complete list for your own make and model of car is in your manual. It is important to take the time to read it and create a car maintenance checklist. Keep that checklist in your glovebox and give it a look once per month to make sure you stay on top of things.

Common Maintenance Tasks

  • Check fluids monthly: engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant, wiper fluid, etc. Make sure they are clean and full.
  • Check tire pressure every month to make sure it is the correct PSI. There is a label in your driver’s doorjamb (or B-Pillar) that gives the correct PSI for your tires.
  • Check windshield wipers for lost screws and worn blades. Replace when worn.
  • Wash your car as often as possible and wax it once per year. This helps stave off corrosion.
  • Take care of repair issues as soon as they reveal themselves. Putting them off can lead to a unnecessary costly repair.
  • Take your car to an auto mechanic for bigger maintenance jobs. The mechanic will check for potential upcoming problems that you will not be able to see.
