What does FAW-Volkswagen's Dual Protection mean?
2 Answers
Dual Protection includes 6 years of maintenance and original factory warranty, as well as an extended warranty of three years on top of the original factory warranty. Advantages and disadvantages of Dual Protection: For owners with high maintenance costs and frequent car usage, Dual Protection can provide more economical maintenance for their vehicles and check their driving conditions. For general household cars with low mileage, Dual Protection may be used less frequently. Precautions for car maintenance: Regularly replace engine oil, oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter. Regularly check whether tires, brake fluid, windshield washer fluid, and coolant in the radiator are within the specified range, check for any 'oil consumption' phenomenon, and closely monitor the engine's performance to ensure timely maintenance.
When I bought the car, I specifically asked the salesperson about the 'Double Protection' package. It's actually a great-value offer from FAW-Volkswagen where you pay a one-time fee for either five years or 150,000 kilometers of coverage. Not only does it extend the vehicle's warranty, but it also includes several free basic maintenance services. For example, if your new car comes with a three-year warranty, purchasing the Double Protection extends it directly to five years. During those five years, you won't need to pay extra for oil changes or filter replacements. Doing the math, this is much more hassle-free compared to my previous Japanese car, making it particularly suitable for people like me who plan to keep a car long-term. However, it's important to note that this must be purchased either at the time of buying the car or within a very short period after delivery to be cost-effective. If you miss that window, you won't be able to buy it later.
