Severe-duty schedule
Driving in severe conditions shortens service intervals. This includes frequent towing, dusty environments, short trips in cold climates, or extensive idling. Under these conditions:
- Oil & filter change: Every 3,000–5,000 miles.
- Tire rotation: Every 3,000–5,000 miles.
- Air filters: Inspect and replace more frequently, especially in dusty areas.
- Transmission fluid: Service every 30,000 miles.
Known issues by mileage
- 30,000–60,000 miles: Premature wear on front brake pads and rotors. Listen for squealing or grinding noises.
- 60,000–100,000 miles: Wheel bearing failure is a common complaint. A humming or roaring noise that changes with speed is a key symptom. Some reports of CVT transmission issues, though not widespread.
- 100,000+ miles: Oil consumption can become an issue. Check oil levels regularly. Suspension components like struts and control arm bushings may show wear.
Estimated cost per service
- 5,000–15,000 miles: $75–$250
- 30,000 miles: $250–$500
- 60,000 miles: $500–$1,200+
- 100,000+ miles: $400–$1,500+, depending on what needs replacement.
