The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse is a midsize family SUV that seats up to eight passengers. The Traverse is offered in six trim levels at dealerships like the Twin Falls Chevy dealer. It’s equipped with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that generates 310 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque, linked to a nine-speed automatic transmission.
Your 2022 Traverse was a big investment, so you’ll want to make sure it’s operating properly. The best way to do that is to take it to a dealership like Con Paulos Chevrolet, the Twin Falls Chevy dealership, for scheduled maintenance. When you follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule, it will help to keep your Traverse running reliably and safely. Your SUV’s maintenance schedule is included in your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
These are highlights of the primary service visits.
7,500 Miles
Chevrolet recommends taking your 2022 Traverse for scheduled maintenance at 7,500-mile intervals. Our expert service technicians will change the vehicle’s oil and oil filter during every maintenance visit. This essential service will help to keep the engine from wearing out prematurely. Motor oil is formulated for long life, but it must be flushed out and replaced regularly.
The service technicians will also inspect your Traverse’s brakes during this service visit. Driving over a pothole or a curb can cause the vehicle’s suspension system to become misaligned. The technicians will check the tires for signs of uneven wear and other symptoms that the wheels need to be aligned. Additional services to expect during this service visit include a tire rotation, a wiper inspection, and a check of the fluid levels.
45,000 Miles
At 45,000 miles, the service technicians will perform the services of the 7,500-mile service visit. Additionally, they’ll replace the engine’s air cleaner filter. A clogged air cleaner filter will cause a drop in performance. A blocked air intake will result in weak acceleration and lower fuel economy. The technicians will also change the transmission fluid during this visit.
100,000 Miles
When your odometer reaches the 100,000-mile mark, the service technicians will replace your 2022 Chevrolet Traverse’s spark plugs. If you drive with old spark plugs, you may notice the vehicle has become difficult to start. There will be a drop in performance, reduced fuel economy, and the check engine light may come on.
150,000 Miles
During the 100,000-mile visit, the service technicians will change the engine’s coolant. The coolant helps protect the engine from overheating in hot weather and from freezing when the temperature dips. Old coolant is unable to prevent oxidation, which can cause corrosion. The technicians will also check the Traverse’s coolant hoses and drive belts for signs of wear. They’ll be replaced if they are cracked or deteriorating.
