Do You Need to Pay for Repairs During the Car Warranty Period?
1 Answers
Most repairs during the car warranty period are free of charge. However, if the vehicle is damaged due to modifications or human factors, it will not be covered by the warranty, and you will need to pay for the repairs yourself. The warranty period for the entire vehicle is determined based on the vehicle's age and mileage, whichever comes first. Components are divided into wear-and-tear parts and non-wear-and-tear parts. Wear-and-tear parts, such as spark plugs, bulbs, and batteries, have a shorter warranty period. If these parts exceed the warranty period or mileage, you will need to pay for their replacement. Non-wear-and-tear parts generally have the same warranty period as the entire vehicle.

This means that if the vehicle exceeds 60,000 kilometers from the date of purchase, even if it hasn't reached three years, the warranty period ends. Similarly, if the vehicle hasn't reached 60,000 kilometers but has been owned for more than three years, the warranty period will also end. This is mainly based on the national "Three Guarantees" law for automobiles, which states that the repair warranty period is longer than the "Three Guarantees" period. The "Three Guarantees" period is no less than two years or 50,000 kilometers, while the repair warranty period is no less than three years or 60,000 kilometers. The date of purchase is determined based on the car purchase invoice. The length of the warranty period varies by brand, with different policies, but it will not be less than three years or 60,000 kilometers.
