Is the first car maintenance free nationwide?
2 Answers
New car first maintenance is free nationwide. The following are the benefits of regular car maintenance: 1. Fuel saving: Regular maintenance can achieve an 11.36% fuel saving effect; replacing spark plugs alone yields an average 3% fuel saving. 2. Extends the service life of engine oil and transmission fluid: Using high-quality high-tech maintenance products, after cleaning and protecting the engine lubrication system, the engine oil remains as clean as new even after 10,000 kilometers of use. 3. Reduces emissions: After full vehicle maintenance adjustments, the CO emissions during idle driving are reduced by an average of 45.37%.
When I first got my car, I was particularly worried about the free first service, as I didn't want to waste money on a long trip back to my hometown. Actually, most mainstream brands like Toyota and Volkswagen do offer nationwide free first service as part of the manufacturer's unified policy. However, the free coverage is limited to basic items such as oil and filter changes, and there's usually a time limit of 3 months or 5,000 kilometers. I remember last year when I helped a friend get their first service done at a dealership in a neighboring city, just bringing the maintenance manual was enough, and it didn't cost a penny. It's worth noting that some luxury brands or imported cars might have different rules, so always check the maintenance manual when buying the car to avoid being misled by salespeople.
