How Long is the Warranty Period for BMW 3 Series?
2 Answers
BMW 3 Series offers a whole vehicle warranty of 3 years or 100,000 kilometers, which refers to the vehicle's three-guarantee period. This means the three-guarantee period for the vehicle is 3 years or 100,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. According to Article 17 of the "Regulations on the Repair, Replacement, and Return of Liability for Household Automotive Products," the repair warranty period for household automotive products is no less than 3 years or 60,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The three-guarantee validity period for household automotive products is no less than 2 years or 50,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The repair warranty period and three-guarantee validity period for household automotive products are calculated from the date the seller issues the vehicle purchase invoice.
The new car warranty for the BMW 3 Series is generally 4 years or 50,000 miles, approximately 80,000 kilometers. I've been driving my wife's car for almost two years now, and during the warranty period, the window lift malfunction was repaired for free. If a part suddenly fails, there's usually no need to pay out of pocket, but it's recommended to regularly check the cooling system and tires to maintain good condition. After the warranty expires, you can opt for specialized repair shops for maintenance—cost-effective and reliable—but don’t forget basic servicing to extend the vehicle's lifespan.
