The Kia Niro from Mid Rivers Kia is the hybrid that thinks it's a crossover…because it is. Offering space and room for five, it can carry all of your belongings for a week away, a run to the store or just around town. And it's the perfect vehicle to bring home the haul from the home improvement store, garage sale, or even just as mom's after school swoop and scoop. What it does need, though, is a little proper care and maintenance to supply you with miles and years of reliable service.Â
Your Kia Niro could be described as the "Un-Hybrid." It combines the fuel economy of a Hybrid with the utility of, er, a crossover utility vehicle (CUV). It's the perfect vehicle to go across town or across country. But still, like every vehicle, it requires proper care and maintenance to get it to go the distance. That's where the service experts at Mid Rivers Kia come in.
  Kia has divided up the service schedule into 7,500-mile increments. During each of those increments, your Kia Mechanic will replace the motor oil and oil filter in your new Kia Niro, along with performing a tire rotation. They will also perform other inspections, involving crucial components in your Mid Rivers Niro. One of these will include the Hybrid Starter Generator belt (HSG). Your factory-certified Kia mechanic will actually recommend changing from a traditional motor oil to a high-performance synthetic oil for its ability to withstand the rigors of thermal breakdown as a result of high heat and humidity.
At the 15,000-mile service, once again it's time to replace the synthetic motor oil and oil filter. Your Mid Rivers service mechanic will perform another tire rotation and a group of more extensive checks, including replacing the in-cabin air filter and inspection of the engine air filter. The hits just keep on coming, with an inspection of the air conditioning coolant and compressor, the drive boots, the braking system, including the brake pads, rotors, hoses and lines, the vacuum hoses, the power steering system and a complete check of the integrity of the exhaust system.
Your 22,500-mile service interval will be next. It's here, where they will replace the engine clutch actuator fluid, as well as a tire rotation to complement your new batch of synthetic oil and a new oil filter. Wrap it up with a tire rotation and you will be on your way.
The 30,000-mile mark means your Mid Rivers Kia Niro has just jumped into the deep end. It also means that it's time for an engine air filter change, as well as a climate control filter replacement to keep dust and debris at bay. These necessary steps will help to keep your Kia Niro breathing freely. Of course, there will be the regularly scheduled synthetic oil and filter change, and the essential tire rotation to maximize the lifespan of your tires. Your Mid Rivers Kia service mechanic will go over all the other inspections due at 15,000 miles, and complete the job by performing a multi-point inspection that includes a fluid top-off, and makes sure all recall notices and service campaigns have been taken care of.
But we aren't finished yet! If you put your Kia Niro CUV through the wringer by subjecting it to high heat and humidity or your routes take you up and down mountainous grades, your Mid Rivers Kia service advisor will suggest that you change your oil on a more frequent basis. That may turn out to be as soon as 3,000 miles. Please consult with your Mid Rivers Kia mechanics for the best course of action to properly fortify your Kia Niro.
Adrift.
Tires were never designed to last forever. But with proper care, they can last quite a while. But there always will come a day where it's time to replace them. That's why your Mid Rivers Kia Parts and Service department carries all the proper sizes for your Niro. Still, we recommend a monthly check of the tire tread by employing the Lincoln Penny test, which will only cost you 1 cent. By monitoring their treadlife, you will prevent any surprises that could hinder your journey, whether short or long. Place
Honest Abe "headfirst" into the tire tread. If Good Ole' Number 16 (he was our 16th President) drops in up to his ears, there is plenty of tread remaining. But remember, if you can see the top of his head, it's time for replacements right away! Your Mid Rivers service advisor will have replacement tires, all at competitive prices.
The Windshield wiper blades are disrespected at every turn. Whether from high heat and humidity, or extreme cold, it's a brutal life.
