What Does 5-Year or 150,000-Kilometer Warranty Mean?
2 Answers
The warranty period of 5 years or 150,000 kilometers for a car refers to the quality assurance period being 5 years or 150,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. That is, during this time or mileage, if any quality issues occur with the vehicle, the car manufacturer or designated 4S stores will provide free repairs or replacements. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Introduction to Car Maintenance: Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as vehicle servicing. 2. Scope of Car Maintenance: Modern car maintenance mainly includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. 3. Purpose of Car Maintenance: The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.
As a car owner, I understand this warranty quite simply: the manufacturer promises that within five years or 150,000 kilometers, if your car has quality issues, they will provide free repairs or part replacements. This condition is based on whichever comes first. For example, if you drive 150,000 kilometers in just three years, the warranty will end based on the mileage. Core components like the engine and transmission are covered, but wear-and-tear parts such as tires and brake pads, which are consumables, are usually not included. We car owners need to ensure regular maintenance at authorized 4S shops, as unauthorized modifications might void the warranty. Overall, this policy is very friendly to new car owners, acting like long-term insurance for the car, providing peace of mind in the early years without worrying about sudden hefty repair costs.
