How Often Should I Service My GMC Sierra 1500?

To ensure your GMC Sierra 1500 is safe, performs as intended, and lasts as long as possible, you'll need to take it in periodically for service. At all GMC Sierra 1500 service intervals, a certified mechanic thoroughly inspects your vehicle based on the manufacturer's recommendations. For accurate service, the manufacturer has a GMC Sierra 1500 maintenance schedule with specific guidelines for the services that your truck needs for a particular mileage. It's essential to follow your truck's service plan, located in the owner's manual, to ensure your vehicle's optimal health.

15,000-Mile Service

For the GMC Sierra 1500, the first significant service milestone hits 15,000 miles. Your car will need to have an oil change and tire rotation first at 7,500 miles, repeated at 15,000 miles. A GMC technician will look at the oil life and engine oil levels as well. The engine's filter may get replaced if needed at 15,000 miles. The tires are all inspected to make sure they have enough pressure and are not wearing out uneven patterns. Their tread depth is also checked.

30,000-Mile Service

When the GMC Sierra 1500 reaches 30,000 miles, it will have its oil changed once again. The tires will be visually inspected and may be rotated again, too. The 30,000-mile service checkup also includes a change of the transfer case fluid if your truck has a GVW that exceeds 8,600 pounds and it uses four-wheel drive. A multi-point inspection is performed at this time, including a checkup of the hoses, belts, and lighting elements. The cabin's air filter may be changed, and your car's brakes will be inspected for safe operation.

60,000-Mile Service

The GMC Sierra 1500 will get another oil change and replace the engine filter at 60,000 miles. The tires will also be rotated and inspected for general overall condition. The car's spark plugs may get replaced at 60,000 miles if necessary. The transfer case fluid will be changed in trucks with a GVW below 8,600 pounds with four-wheel drive. A GMC technician will look at the car's battery to check for leaks and corrosion and test its remaining life. The accessory drive belts are checked at 60,000 miles for damage, and the brakes also get inspected.

90,000-Mile Service

At 90,000 miles, your car will have the evaporative control system checked. The engine, brake, and transmission fluid are also inspected and possibly replaced. A mechanic will look at the brakes and braking components as well.
