Is There a Charge for Repairs During the Car Warranty Period?
1 Answers
Not necessarily. During the car warranty period, as long as the malfunction or part damage occurs under normal usage conditions as specified, the manufacturer will provide free repair or replacement of corresponding parts for the owner. However, this does not mean that the car can be 'repaired as desired' just because it is within the warranty period, nor can it be simply understood as 'everything is covered.' More details are as follows: 1. The commonly mentioned 5-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty mainly covers the car's core components, such as the engine, transmission, drivetrain, and chassis. The likelihood of these components failing is relatively low, and the repair costs are high. It is rare for these core components to develop issues within the 5-year period. 2. For wear-and-tear parts like tires, rims, headlights, and brakes, car dealers typically offer only a 3-6 month or 5,000-kilometer warranty. 3. The car warranty period refers to the timeframe during which the car manufacturer promises to provide free repairs and maintenance for any faults arising from quality issues when selling the product to consumers.
