Hyundai Santa Fe Service Intervals

What is the Hyundai Santa Fe Maintenance Schedule?

Hyundai's vehicles are known for being some of the most reliable and long-lasting on the market. However, your Hyundai still requires proper maintenance and periodic inspections to perform at its best and last as long as possible. While most Hyundai Santa Fe models follow a similar schedule for maintenance, exact Hyundai Santa Fe service intervals for your car are located in your owner's manual. Each owner's manual comes with a list of recommended services to be performed in various increments. The Hyundai Santa Fe maintenance schedule includes oil changes, tire rotations, and more.

15,000-Mile Service

Even before your Santa Fe hits 15,000 miles, you will need to take it to a mechanic to get the oil changed. An oil change happens about every 8,000 miles for the Santa Fe. However, you can also schedule a second oil change when you take your car in for the 15,000-mile service. The Santa Fe's tires are closely evaluated for the proper tread levels and pressure levels. A mechanic may also determine that the car should have a new engine filter and cabin filter installed to help clean air and cleaner fuel move through the vehicle. The brake pads, discs, and wires are evaluated as well at 15,000 miles. Your Santa Fe will also get its headlights and windshield wipers inspected.

30,000-Mile Service

Several items are added to the inspection checklist for the Santa Fe in another 15,000 miles. The second service appointment brings a check of the battery and battery hoses. The air filter for the climate control system gets checked, as does the parking brake. The boots and driveshafts are evaluated as well. Your Santa Fe's exhaust pipe and muffler get an inspection at 30,000 miles. The tires are assessed for condition and pressure level. The rear differential oil may be changed, and the suspension mounting bolts are inspected for quality.

60,000-Mile Service

When the Santa Fe reaches 60,000 miles, you'll probably need to have the transmission fluid topped off or fully flushed. A mechanic might also add a fuel additive for optimal engine performance and longevity. Your mechanic may look at the spark plugs and replace them. The driveshafts, drive belt, and boots are evaluated at 60,000 miles. The car's front differential oil is inspected and changed as needed.

90,000-Mile Service

The Santa Fe will need to have its engine and transmission fluids cleaned and replaced at 90,000 miles. The tires are balanced and inspected to ensure sufficient pressure and safe tread levels. The Santa Fe's ball joints, vacuum hose, and vapor hose are also inspected.
