Are Car Lights Covered Under the Three-Year Warranty?
2 Answers
Car lights are generally covered under a two-year warranty. Here is an introduction to relevant knowledge about car lighting: 1. Function: Car lights are various traffic lights installed on vehicles to ensure safe driving, categorized into illumination lights and signal lights. 2. Classification: Headlights, fog lights, reverse lights, license plate lights, dome lights, instrument panel lights, and trunk lights. 3. Precautions: Checking car lights is one of the simpler steps in the new car inspection process. However, since the installation of car lights is prone to issues during the overall vehicle assembly, it is important to take this step seriously during inspection.
I often help friends with minor car issues, and I've encountered light bulb warranty claims several times. Generally, the three-year warranty mainly covers major components like the engine or transmission, while small items such as bulbs, like wiper blades, are often excluded as consumables. Last time when my headlight suddenly went out, I checked the manual—it clearly stated bulbs weren’t covered. At the dealership, the technician also confirmed that wear-and-tear parts like these are exempt under manufacturer policy, suggesting I buy a new bulb myself—cheap and time-saving. The manual has a detailed list; checking it avoids misunderstandings. For safety, don’t delay if headlights fail—check wiring voltage promptly, but replacement is inevitable. DIY fixes are simple, practical, and budget-friendly for peace of mind.
