Bought it used? Start the schedule from a known point
A maintenance schedule assumes you know what has already been done. With a used vehicle, you often do not. A thin folder of receipts, a seller who says it was always looked after, and a service sticker of uncertain age is the usual starting point.
The risk runs both ways. Some items get done twice because nobody is sure, which wastes money. Others, often the expensive ones with long intervals, never get done at all because everyone assumes somebody else did them.
The fix is a baseline visit soon after you buy it.
Read the schedule against the mileage. The owner's manual lists what is due at each interval. At the current mileage, a few items will be due or overdue.
Check the items that cannot be confirmed. Fluids are a good example. Their condition says a lot about whether they were changed when they should have been.
Record what was done and when. From that visit on, the vehicle has a history you can trust, and the schedule runs forward from a fixed point.
The same approach suits a vehicle you have owned for years but lost track of, or a work truck that changed hands inside a business.
What scheduled maintenance covers
The items the manufacturer lists for your vehicle at its mileage: fluids, filters, belts, inspections and the like. Bring the manual if you have it, or the mileage, and any receipts you do have.
Work found along the way has its own services here, including brake repair and oil changes. The national scheduled maintenance page explains how the schedule works.

The Salt Lake City Truck Tire Center and Orem also offer scheduled maintenance.
