If It's Time for Regular Service, Bakersfield Mazda is Here to Help

At our dealership, we want you to get the most out of your Mazda vehicle, enjoying excellent performance on Arvin roads, whether driving for business or pleasure. With just a few routine service visits throughout the year, you'll have smooth, reliable service from your Mazda car for years to come.

Oil Change Service

Oil changes are among the most popular services, and for a good reason. There probably needs to be another maintenance service you can do for your car that dramatically affects your performance over time. Clean motor oil increases the efficiency of your engine, causing it to produce less friction and regulating the overall temperature of your powertrain. It also causes your model to burn less fuel, saving you money on gas. Regularly changing your oil will reduce wear and tear on your engine, extending its operating lifespan. Your Mazda vehicle most likely uses synthetic oil and will need a change after driving roughly 5,000 or so miles around Oildale and beyond.

Tire Care

You can avoid buying a brand-new set of tires earlier than expected with just a little maintenance focusing on avoiding excessive wear. Regular tire rotation service switches underutilized tires to a prime position while giving the tires at the forefront a bit of a break. Depending on how you drive your Mazda vehicle, your tires will benefit from a rotation every six months or so. If you've got a Mazda SUV you're using to haul items, you may want to rotate them sooner. Maintaining the proper pressure in your tires will also prevent them from wearing out too soon, so keep an eye on the pressure reading or ask your technician for assistance the next time you come in for service.

Brake System Maintenance

Most drivers only need occasional brake system service to a few key areas like brake pads, fluid replacement, or rotor care. Your brake pads wear out at a rate unique to your driving habits and daily route, so it can be hard for your technician to predict when you'll need a new set. However, we can always take a look and give you an estimate or replace them when needed. Most pads last anywhere from 20,000 to 40,000 miles. The fluid in your brake lines must also be refreshed every few years for optimal performance. Your safety while driving is paramount, so if you notice a dramatic drop in brake performance while driving in Wasco, don't delay to have one of our certified technicians look at the system to locate the problem.

Engine Service

Engine care is the foundation of car maintenance. Regular engine inspections are always a good idea, especially if you're planning a long road trip or the seasons are changing in California. Your technician will check for early signs of trouble, like a splitting hose causing a small leak or a fraying belt. They'll also test your battery's strength if it's getting older, check and top up various fluids, test lightbulbs and change filters if necessary.

Other Long-Term Repairs

Infrequent maintenance like timing and serpentine belt changes, coolant replacement, changing spark plugs, inspecting struts and shocks, or any other tasks usually stick to a predictable timetable only once every 50,000 miles or more. You'll get years of optimal performance from your Mazda car before considering a timing belt change or a strut inspection. Your technician can help you keep track of any long-term maintenance tasks that need doing, and you'll also find that information in your Mazda owner's manual.
