Maintain Your InvestmentPreventative scheduled maintenance is an important investment to
optimize the performance, reliability, durability, safety and resale value of
your Nissan. Scheduling your vehicle’s maintenance at the
recommended intervals will ensure your vehicle is running at its best.
We want you to enjoy your Nissan vehicle. This Service and
Maintenance Guide is designed to help you make sure your vehicle
receives proper and timely maintenance that is necessary. Key services
are explained in detail, along with an outline of scheduled maintenance
to help you maintain your vehicle. Your local Nissan dealer can assist
you in determining the best schedule based on your driving habits and
local conditions.
Failure to perform scheduled maintenance may result in excluding
portions of your vehicle from warranty coverage and may reduce the
performance, safety, reliability, durability and/or resale value of your
vehicle. See your Warranty Information Booklet and Owner’s Manual for
details.
