How often should a car be serviced after the first maintenance?

[DeJanelle]

After the first maintenance, a car should be serviced every year or every 10,000 kilometers. New cars usually require their first maintenance at 5,000 kilometers. If the mileage is relatively low, it is sufficient to have the first maintenance at a 4S shop within one year. As long as the first maintenance is performed at a 4S shop within the specified period, the warranty can still be honored even if subsequent maintenance is not done at a 4S shop. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent failures, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.
