What does Double Protection 1699 mean?
2 Answers
Double Protection 1699 refers to the additional warranty cost required for a vehicle beyond the free warranty period. The payment covers a total warranty period of 6 years. Typically, the warranty period for vehicles is 3 years, but with Double Protection, the warranty period extends to 6 years. The vehicle warranty period is the timeframe during which the car manufacturer provides free repairs and maintenance for faults caused by quality issues when selling the product to consumers. Below is an extended introduction: Check the relevant instructions: During the warranty period, not all repair costs for the vehicle will be waived. It depends on the free items specified by the manufacturer during the warranty period. Usually, there are relevant written instructions in the owner's manual and the after-sales departments of various car 4S stores.
When I first bought a car, I was also puzzled about what the 'Double Protection 1699' meant. Later, a friend told me it's a common promotional package offered by 4S stores. It means you pay 1,699 yuan to get dual protection: first, an extended warranty service that covers repair costs for core components like the engine and transmission, even after the original factory warranty expires; second, it includes several basic maintenance services, such as free oil changes, oil filter replacements, and brake inspections. This is perfect for new drivers like me, saving a lot of hassle. If you drive frequently and require several maintenance sessions a year, the cost is already justified. However, remember to check the details before signing the contract—some damages caused by human factors may not be covered, and there are validity period restrictions. Regular maintenance also makes the car more durable and gives you peace of mind while driving.
