Hyundai Santa Fe Service Intervals

What is the Hyundai Santa Fe Maintenance Schedule?

The Hyundai Santa Fe is among the most reliable and low-maintenance SUVs on the market. However, even the solid Santa Fe needs regular service to perform at its full capacity. Optimal Hyundai Santa Fe service intervals are outlined in the owner's manual that comes with your Santa Fe. Typically, the Hyundai Santa Fe maintenance schedule starts with a first full-service appointment at 15,000 miles. The owner's manual then outlines additional service appointments up to 90,000 miles in periodic increments.

15,000-Mile Service

Our mechanics will perform a series of check-ups and inspections at this initial service interval according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Your Hyundai will get a top-off or change of the engine oil. It may get a clean engine filter as well. A tire rotation is performed for safety and performance. The mechanic may also add a fuel additive to the vehicle to help it run efficiently and ensure the engine lasts as long as possible. A visual inspection is standard for the air conditioning system, compressor, and filter. The battery is also checked.

When the Hyundai Santa Fe reaches 30,000 miles, it will get the disc brakes and brake pads checked out by a certified mechanic.
