Have your eye on a pre-owned Cadillac Escalade? A pre-owned model can provide incredible performance for many years to come as long as you adhere to regular maintenance. Learn the best care methods to ensure the longevity of your pre-owned SUV when you visit Fields Cadillac Jacksonville.
Oil Changes
Modern Cadillac Escalade SUVs require oil changes every 7,500 miles or so. An oil change should also be accompanied by a filter inspection. Keep in mind that there are factors that may accelerate oil degradation, such as frequent stop-and-go driving or constantly driving with heavy cargo in tow.
Tire Rotations
Tire rotations should also be done every 7,500 miles, so it’s a good idea to schedule it in conjunction with an oil change. Uneven tread wear is especially common in full-size SUVs like the Cadillac Escalade, particularly when passengers and freight may contribute to uneven weight distribution. This may also lead to tire alignment and balance issues.
Spark Plug Inspections
Spark plugs usually last for 50,000 to 100,000 miles between replacements. Have this component checked during a routine maintenance appointment at our dealership. This part has the essential function of providing the spark critical for starting your engine.
Shock and Strut Inspections
Shock absorbers are especially important in a family SUV for supporting the vehicle’s weight. They also play a role in the vehicle’s steering, especially when it comes to tight turns and cornering. Pay attention to signs of shock and strut wear, which include squeaking noises and accelerated tire wear. It's a good idea to have your shocks inspected every four to five years.
