Most Kias follow a manufacturer-recommended maintenance schedule that typically includes oil and filter changes every 6 months or every 6,000 miles (whichever comes first), with additional services like tire rotation, fluid checks, and filter replacements at regular intervals. However, your specific schedule may vary based on your model, year, and driving conditions-some newer Kias have extended intervals. Your owner's manual has the exact schedule for your vehicle. Our Service team at Castle Kia McHenry can review your vehicle's schedule, answer questions about what's due, and help you stay on track. Call (815) 453-8566 or stop by 1121 State Rte 31 to schedule your next appointment. Regular maintenance keeps your warranty valid and your Kia running great!
