Does Skipping 4S Shop After First Maintenance Affect Warranty?
1 Answers
After the first car maintenance, not going to the 4S shop does not affect the warranty. After the first maintenance of a new car, you can choose to maintain it at a 4S shop or a car repair shop, but the first maintenance must be done at a 4S shop. If you skip the first maintenance at a 4S shop, it will be considered as giving up the warranty. Moreover, the first maintenance is free. Items to be checked during the first maintenance include: Replacement of engine oil, oil filter, air conditioning filter, and air filter; Checking the levels of coolant, battery fluid, and windshield washer fluid; Checking the brake and clutch fluid levels, and the power steering fluid level; Inspecting each oil pipe interface of the system for oil leakage; Checking front and rear lights; Checking tire pressure and wear, and tightening screws according to specified torque. We must remember the time for the first car maintenance. Not only the time but also the mileage you drive. The 4S shop will tell you that the car will be maintained after driving 3000 kilometers or 3 months. As long as one of these two conditions is met, maintenance should be performed immediately. If the time is exceeded, the car dealership may refuse maintenance. When you go for maintenance, be sure to bring the maintenance manual. With it, you can maintain the car, which makes it convenient to record various situations of your first maintenance. The manual can be placed in the car and will be used for all future maintenance. Maintenance should start with the lights. Check the low beam, high beam, fog lights, etc. See if they can be turned on and off normally, and if there are any abnormalities with the lights. Check the engine oil inside the engine. When checking the engine oil, pay attention to the oil level height and the quality of the oil used. If the oil quality deteriorates, you should change the oil in time, even if it is not the time to change the oil. Because oil is very important to the engine, the oil is equivalent to the source of life of the engine, just like water is essential to the human body. If the engine oil is too much or too little, it will cause rapid wear of the engine and eventually damage the engine. However, if you usually choose poor-quality oil, it will also affect the engine's operation. In addition, if the engine oil is not changed for a long time, the oil quality will decline, which will also affect the engine. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a good habit of checking the condition of the engine oil, so regular maintenance is very important, and the first maintenance is even more important. It is essential to check the bottom of the transmission. It is very important to check whether the transmission is damaged or if there is any oil leakage. The transmission is also a very important part of the car. It plays a vital role in car acceleration.
