Is it okay to continue driving without servicing when the car is due for maintenance?
1 Answers
Theoretically, it won't cause immediate issues if you continue driving without servicing when the car is due for maintenance, but you should get it serviced as soon as possible. Here is detailed information about vehicle maintenance: 1. Get maintenance done early: Maintenance has both mileage and time limits. Engine oil also has its own shelf life, so even if the mileage hasn't been reached, it should be replaced when the time comes. Most importantly, if you skip maintenance, the 4S shop may refuse to honor the warranty due to lack of servicing. 2. The necessity of maintenance: It's generally acceptable to drive an extra 500 kilometers (plus or minus) beyond the scheduled maintenance mileage. Daily maintenance, which includes pre-drive, during-drive, and post-drive checks, is the responsibility of the driver. The main tasks involve cleaning, replenishing, and safety inspections, which are essential for keeping the vehicle in proper working condition. 3. Daily maintenance: Daily car maintenance is extremely important. Neglecting it can not only cause unnecessary damage to the vehicle but also jeopardize driving safety. For example, insufficient lubrication can lead to cylinder scuffing or bearing failure, and malfunctioning vehicle components can result in traffic accidents.
