Tips on Keeping Up With Your Mazda CX-90’s Maintenance

Following the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule helps prevent potential issues, maintain fuel efficiency, and uphold the vehicle’s resale value. Below are some key requirements for scheduled maintenance:

Adhere to the Maintenance Schedule

Follow Schedule 1 or 2 maintenance intervals based on your driving habits and conditions. It’s important not to skip or postpone any scheduled maintenance tasks, as this may lead to more significant issues down the road.

Use Genuine Mazda Parts and Fluids

When performing maintenance tasks or repairs on your Mazda CX-90, it’s crucial to use genuine Mazda parts and fluids to ensure their compatibility with your vehicle. Using anything other than genuine parts or fluids may cause damage to your vehicle, void warranty coverage, or decrease performance.

Consult Your Owners Manual

Always refer to your Mazda CX-90 owner’s manual for specific information regarding maintenance requirements, fluid capacities, and other essential details. The owner’s manual contains detailed instructions on how to perform various tasks and provides an accurate reference for maintaining your vehicle.

Work With a Certified Mazda Service Center

To ensure that your Mazda CX-90 receives the best possible care, we highly recommended that you have all scheduled maintenance tasks performed at a certified Mazda service center. These centers have trained technicians who are familiar with Mazda vehicles’ specific needs and requirements.

Keep Records of Maintenance Tasks Performed

Maintain a record of all completed maintenance tasks, including dates, mileages, and any associated costs. This information will be helpful when planning future services and can also provide valuable documentation when selling or trading in your vehicle.

Monitor Warning Indicators

Pay attention to any warning indicators on your vehicle’s dashboard and address them promptly. Warning indicators may signal that certain components require inspection or maintenance and you shouldn’t ignore them.

Following the scheduled maintenance tasks for your Mazda CX-90 is essential to ensure optimal performance, safety, and longevity. By adhering to Mazda’s recommended maintenance schedule and working with a certified Mazda service center, you can help prevent costly repairs down the road and maintain your vehicle’s value.
