How to Check Maintenance Records at a 4S Shop?
2 Answers
To check maintenance records at a 4S shop, you generally need to visit the 4S shop directly, provide proof of ownership, and ask the staff to assist in checking the records. Generally speaking, the vehicle record systems of 4S shops under the same brand are all interconnected nationwide. You only need to bring your proof of identity. Visit the 4S shop and ask the after-sales service staff, who will help retrieve the vehicle's maintenance records. This can effectively improve the vehicle's efficiency, reduce fuel consumption, and minimize wear and tear on parts and tires. For example, regular maintenance of the engine is essential.
To check the maintenance records at a 4S dealership, here's how I do it: First, go directly to the service counter of your vehicle's 4S dealership with your driver's license or vehicle registration certificate. They have complete records in their system and can print them out on the spot for free and quickly. Second, download the official app of the corresponding car brand, such as Toyota's Toyota app. After registering an account and binding your vehicle, you can enter the VIN code to view historical records online and even schedule the next service. Third-party platforms like Che Jianding can also help check, but they charge a fee of a few dozen yuan, so be mindful of personal information security. Remember to check the records regularly to avoid duplicate repairs or missing key maintenance, especially before long-distance trips—it gives you peace of mind. My personal experience is to check once a year to keep the records clear, which also increases the car's value when selling it later.
