Driving an electric Honda is a great way to safeguard the environment, but, like a gas vehicle, your EV requires proper care. Whether you're wondering when to visit your local Honda dealer for scheduled maintenance or want to learn more about the Honda EV maintenance requirements before investing in a vehicle, let's break down everything you need to know. more Scheduled Honda EV Maintenance Like most electric vehicles, your Honda EV requires less maintenance than gas-powered vehicles. The most important maintenance service your EV requires is tire rotation, which should be performed every 7,500 miles, or sooner if you notice uneven tire wear. Every 24 months or 22,500 miles, whichever comes first, you should replace the passenger compartment air filter. The hood and body lift support gas struts should be replaced every 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. You should also drain and refill the coolant circuits every five years or 150,000 miles. If you're driving in severe conditions, such as heavy city traffic in hot weather or on dusty terrains, the EV's scheduled maintenance should include the replacement of the electric drive unit fluid every 45,000 miles. Owner Checks and Services Beyond the scheduled maintenance, as a Honda EV owner, you should also respect a vehicle care schedule. To make sure your ride is in top condition at all times, you must monitor the tire pressure and tread depth about once a month and schedule a wheel alignment service when you notice signs of uneven wear. You must also replace the brake fluid every five years and the air conditioning desiccant every seven years. At least twice a year, you should also schedule an underbody flushing to remove dirt buildup. In addition, you should monitor the windshield washer level, top it up when necessary, and change the wiper blades at least once a year. Why Choose Your Honda Dealer for EV Care and Maintenance? Whether you need to bring in your EV for scheduled maintenance services or additional checks, choosing Perry Honda comes with the guarantee that your vehicle will be serviced by Honda-certified technicians trained to spot and fix the smallest issues before they become expensive problems.
