Admit it: You think your Hazelwood Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is a handsome looker, and that's the reason you bought it. Oh yes, there's the great mileage, too. When you add in the reliability and the value stemming from its 10-year/100,000-mile warranty, it turns out to be the real deal. Built for the long haul, both in mileage and in years, your Sonata still needs proper maintenance. That's all on you.Like a baby or a pet anaconda, cars generally can't take care of themselves. That's your job, and that of the service mechanics and technicians at Napleton Hyundai of Hazelwood. Just to keep things convenient, Hyundai has compiled a Recommended Maintenance Schedule for your new Sonata Hybrid to tell you what is supposed to happen, and when it is supposed to happen.
The "when" is every 7,500-miles. That is the perfect "in the middle" blend that takes care of oil changes and other inspections. At the same time, you should rotate your tires, and have your Hyundai Service Mechanic inspect your engine air filter and vacuum hose. Service intervals for your Hyundai Sonata Hybrid are cut into segments of 7,500 miles. For this schedule, expect a service at 7,500-, 15,000-, 22,500-, 30,000-, 37,500-miles, and so on, for as long as you own your vehicle.
Oil changes, tire rotations and more.Sure there are many different services that need to be performed on your Hazelwood Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, but none more important than an oil and oil filter change. Your Sonata can operate perfectly well using conventional motor oil but why would you? First of all, there is the longevity that comes from a Hyundai-approved Synthetic Motor Oil. With higher-tech, high-performance engines used in more situations than ever before, it makes all the sense in the world to use the longer-lasting synthetic oil, which has the ability to withstand excess heat and has the ability to fight thermal breakdown. Don't forget the oil filter. Your Hazelwood Hyundai Service Mechanic will replace the old oil filter with a new one that will trap dust, dirt and debris before it has a chance to enter the engine.
Your Hazelwood service mechanic will also inspect other components of
your Sonata Hybrid while it is up on the service rack. They will also
rotate the tires, for even wear all around, as described in your Owner's
Manual. If they are wearing down earlier than anticipated, don't worry:
the parts and service department at Hazelwood Hyundai will stock the
proper tires for your Hybrid Sonata. As we always say, your mileage may
vary. 
Windshield Wipers: Windshield wipers can be frustrating,
sometimes. Annoying us when they are worn out (or there is no Wiper
Fluid left) and frustrating as they disintegrate into powder right in
front of our eyes. But have you ever wondered how they end up becoming
worn down when they are hardly getting used? Simple: Exposure to UV rays
and extreme heat and humidity causes rubber to break down, while
extreme cold can turn them brittle and hard.
