1 Answers
Usually, the maintenance cycle for Japanese and Korean car models is 5,000 kilometers, while most European and American car models have maintenance intervals of 7,500 kilometers or even 15,000 kilometers and above. Here is some extended information about car maintenance: 1. Generally, exceeding the maintenance schedule by 500 kilometers or even 1,000 kilometers is not a big issue. However, during the car's warranty period, it is essential to strictly adhere to the maintenance manual's regulations. Otherwise, the 4S dealership may refuse free warranty repairs or claims for issues that arise during the warranty period, citing overdue maintenance. 2. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing.
