What is Dealer Warranty?
1 Answers
Dealer warranty refers to the warranty provided by the 4S store or dealer where the car was purchased, and it does not qualify for nationwide warranty coverage. Generally, the car warranty period is the time frame promised by the car manufacturer to consumers when selling the product, during which free repairs and maintenance are provided for faults caused by quality issues. Most car manufacturers now implement a new vehicle warranty period of "two years or 60,000 kilometers, whichever comes first." This means there are two conditions for the warranty period: one is a time limit of two years, and the other is a mileage limit of 60,000 kilometers. If either of these conditions is met, the vehicle's warranty period is considered expired, and normal maintenance and repairs will no longer be free. In addition to specifying the warranty periods for various components of the car, almost all car brands' impose conditions on the warranty. If the following situations occur, the owner will not be eligible for free warranty services: 1. Failure to perform maintenance as required: If the owner does not take the new car to the designated 4S store or the manufacturer's authorized service station for regular maintenance within the specified mileage, any issues that arise will require the owner to pay for repairs, even if the car is still within the warranty period. 2. Unauthorized modifications to the vehicle: "No warranty for modified cars" is a common policy among almost all manufacturers regarding warranty issues. Some brands even stipulate in their warranty terms that if the owner changes the vehicle's purpose for use in rental, leasing, or competitive racing without authorization, it will be considered an automatic forfeiture of warranty rights.
