What Does Lexus Free Maintenance Include?
2 Answers
Lexus free maintenance includes items such as the three filters, certain working fluids, and spark plugs. Below are the specific details about Lexus free maintenance: 1. Coverage: It basically covers 90% of the maintenance items required for the vehicle. All Lexus brands offer free maintenance services for up to 4 years or 100,000 kilometers. 2. Self-payment: Lexus provides free replacement of semi-synthetic engine oil. If you prefer to use fully synthetic engine oil, you will need to pay for it yourself. Services like tire replacement, wheel alignment, wheel balancing, and any items labeled as 'cleaning' are not included in the free maintenance and require self-payment. 'Cleaning' items include throttle body cleaning, fuel injector cleaning, fuel system cleaning, etc.
I used to drive a Lexus, and their complimentary maintenance plan was quite worthwhile. Every time I took it to the dealership, they changed the engine oil and oil filter, checked the tire condition, and performed wheel balancing to prevent uneven wear. They also conducted a full inspection of the braking system, checking the wear on brake pads and discs—safety first. Fluids like coolant and brake fluid were topped up or replaced for free. Additionally, there was a comprehensive 20-point inspection covering lights, battery, suspension, and more to prevent minor issues from escalating. The entire service was free, even labor costs, but note that wear-and-tear items like wiper blades had to be paid for separately. This plan typically covers the first 4 years or 50,000 miles for new cars—don’t let it go to waste by exceeding the limit. After each service, the car ran smoother, and the timely maintenance was hassle-free, with no worries about costs.
