The warranty period for a car is two years or 60,000 kilometers. The functions of car maintenance include: 1. Ensuring the vehicle is in excellent performance condition; 2. Improving the vehicle's efficiency and reducing the wear of its parts and tires; 3. Enhancing driving safety; 4. Preventing potential hazards caused by vehicle issues; 5. Reducing noise and environmental pollution; 6. Keeping the vehicle's appearance clean and preventing damage. Car maintenance items: 1. Replacing engine oil, oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter; 2. Inspecting the body and tires; 3. Checking the braking system; 4. Examining the chassis for damage; 5. Checking the fluid levels.
I recently bought a new car, and the warranty period is the part I care about the most. Generally, the warranty for a new car is about three years or 100,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. For example, my Volkswagen's warranty will expire after three years. I also purchased an extended warranty for an extra few thousand dollars, which covers up to five years, giving me more peace of mind. During the warranty period, repairs like engine or transmission issues can be handled for free at the 4S dealership, but wear-and-tear parts like brake pads and tires are not covered. When choosing a car, I compared brands—Toyota has a shorter warranty but is known for reliability, while Tesla's electric vehicles offer a four-year warranty for the whole car and an eight-year warranty for the battery, which is more appealing. After the warranty expires, remember to perform regular maintenance, such as oil changes, to avoid sudden breakdowns and ensure safe driving. With electric vehicles, the long battery warranty is now a major trend.
