Does a car that has been used for 3 years need to be serviced at a 4S shop?
1 Answers
It is not necessarily required to service a car that has been used for 3 years at a 4S shop. The decision mainly depends on the usage condition of the car, and servicing does not always have to be done at a 4S shop. Locations for car servicing: After 3 years of use, you may choose not to service your car at a 4S shop. You can select a servicing location based on your needs, such as opting for a third-party professional automotive service provider. If you can ensure that the vehicle will not encounter quality issues requiring warranty claims during the warranty period, you may skip 4S shop servicing. Otherwise, it is advisable to go. Standards for car servicing: A car that has been driven for three years does not necessarily require a major service. If the vehicle has been used infrequently during these three years, with a total mileage of less than 60,000 kilometers, the major service can be slightly delayed. However, basic minor maintenance should still be performed regularly. Generally, 60,000 kilometers is the standard interval for major servicing for most vehicles, and you can use this as a benchmark for judgment.
