How to Check Your Car's Warranty Period?
2 Answers
The car's warranty period starts from the date the sales invoice is issued, so you can check your car's invoice. Generally, when the transaction between the consumer and the merchant is completed, the merchant provides the consumer with a warranty card along with the product as proof of warranty.
I remember when I bought my first car, I didn't know how to check the warranty period, but later solved it by checking the car manual. This manual comes with the car at purchase and contains detailed warranty terms and duration, such as three years or 100,000 kilometers. I always flip to the 'Warranty Information' section to verify the dates. If the manual is lost, you can contact the 4S store where you bought the car, bring your vehicle license, and ask the staff—they can look it up in their system by entering the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). The VIN is usually stuck on the lower left corner of the windshield. Don't delay checking; if the warranty expires, the repair costs can be hefty. Remind the 4S store to check the warranty status during annual maintenance—developing this habit can save you worry and money. If you really can't find it, try the brand's official website owner portal, enter the VIN for an online check—it's usually free and convenient.
