After reaching the maintenance period, the car can continue to be driven if there is no damage to the body components, as there is no regulation prohibiting driving after the maintenance period has expired. Vehicle maintenance is the best way to extend the lifespan of a car. If the maintenance mileage is reached, it is recommended to visit a 4S shop for maintenance. Below are the classifications of maintenance levels: 1. Primary maintenance (around 5,000 kilometers): Maintenance operations centered on tightening and lubrication for vehicles that have traveled a certain mileage. This includes inspecting and tightening the exposed bolts and nuts of the car; adding lubricant to the designated lubrication points; checking the oil level in each assembly and adding lubricating oil; cleaning various air filters, etc. 2. Secondary maintenance (around 10,000 kilometers): Maintenance operations centered on inspection and adjustment for vehicles that have traveled a certain mileage. The scope of maintenance, in addition to the tasks of primary maintenance, includes checking and adjusting the working condition of the engine and electrical equipment, dismantling and cleaning the oil pan and oil filter, checking and adjusting the steering and braking mechanisms, dismantling and cleaning the front and rear hub bearings. Adding lubricating oil, dismantling and inspecting tires, and performing tire rotation, etc. 3. Tertiary maintenance (around 20,000 kilometers): Maintenance operations centered on disassembling, cleaning, inspecting, adjusting, and eliminating hidden dangers for the vehicle assemblies. The scope of maintenance: In addition to performing all the tasks of primary and secondary maintenance, it is necessary to dismantle and inspect the engine, remove carbon deposits, gum, and dirt from the cooling system; disassemble, clean, inspect, adjust, and eliminate hidden dangers for the chassis assemblies; inspect the frame and body or perform rust removal and touch-up painting.

How old must a tire be to be considered a stock tire?

Tires over 3 years old are considered stock. According to the domestic trade industry standard "Technical Specifications for Tire Claims," the claim period (including unused and normally used tires) is calculated based on the tire production date, with a 3-year period as the valid claim duration. The domestic trade industry standard "Specifications for Tire Marketing Management" further stipulates that tire dealers should not sell tires that cannot be claimed. Here are some precautions to consider when purchasing and using tires: 1. Always check the production date when buying tires: If the production date is too old, do not purchase them. Tires are rubber products and will age even if unused. 2. Regularly inspect tire pressure and surface for damage during daily use: The sidewall of a tire is relatively fragile, and if it is scratched or punctured, it cannot be repaired. It is recommended that car owners replace their tires every four years, even if they have driven relatively few miles within that period.
