Dorsett Hyundai – Recommended service and maintenance schedule for Hyundai Tucson

As a compact SUV that blends smart efficiency, confident HTRAC AWD capability, and advanced Hyundai SmartSense driver assists like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist and Lane Keeping Assist, the Hyundai Tucson rewards owners who follow a sensible service rhythm. At Dorsett Hyundai, our factory-trained technicians, OEM diagnostic tools, and Genuine Hyundai Parts make staying on schedule simple and stress-free. Whether you commute across I-70 or run weekend errands, regular oil changes, tire rotations, and fluid inspections protect performance, maximize safety systems that rely on clean sensors and proper alignment, and help preserve resale value. We also perform multi-point inspections at every visit and review any open campaigns or software updates so your Tucson operates as the engineers intended. Because conditions and drivetrains vary by model year and use, always consult your Owner’s Manual for specifics and ask our advisors for a tailored plan. Proudly serving customers in Terre Haute, IN and surrounding cities, we offer convenient online scheduling, transparent inspection videos, and quick-turn appointments to fit your day.

Simple habits help you stay on track. Book your next service when you pick up your Tucson so time never sneaks up. Keep a log of mileage and dates in the glovebox or your phone. Watch tire wear and rotate sooner if you notice feathering from winter potholes. If you replace a windshield or have front-end repairs, ask us to calibrate the front camera and radar so features like Smart Cruise Control and Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist remain precise. And when you tow, idle often, or drive short trips in extreme cold or heat, consider the Severe Service schedule—we will customize intervals for your driving. Our team backs every visit with clear estimates, timely updates, and thorough answers, all with the goal of keeping your Tucson feeling new mile after mile. Intervals may vary by model year, engine, and use—always consult your Owner’s Manual and contact the manufacturer or our service team for details. Ready for a personalized plan?
