After Luxgen's production discontinuation, and repairs can be performed at 4S stores or third-party professional maintenance and repair shops. Below is a detailed introduction to 4S stores: 1. Sales and After-Sales Service: 4S stores can be divided into sales and after-sales service sections. The sales section includes new car sales, used car sales, corporate client sales, and beauty & accessory sales. The after-sales service section covers routine maintenance, insurance claim handling, manufacturer warranty claims, and auto insurance sales. 2. Brand Dealerships: As authorized dealerships, 4S stores must comply with the automaker's requirements, including unified store design, standardized management, consistent service standards, uniform brand culture, and coordinated marketing activities. Automakers also evaluate 4S stores' operational conditions, as they represent the brand's culture and values, serving as the direct channel for customers to interact with the automotive brand.

My Luxgen had an engine malfunction last year, so I went directly to the local 4S dealership. After all, it's a professional brand after- service with complete parts inventory and original factory diagnostic equipment, making the repair process reliable. Although the prices are slightly higher than independent shops, their technicians undergo rigorous training and are particularly familiar with this model's electronic systems. However, advance appointments are necessary, and parts may take 2-3 weeks to arrive. I recommend checking the official website for authorized service centers—avoid roadside repair shops at all costs, as this car's electrical system is too complex and could get worse with improper repairs.

A friend of mine runs a repair shop specializing in various niche car models. Luxgen cars, especially the U6 and U5, are frequently seen there. The advantage of such independent repair shops is their lower labor costs, and they can also help source used parts from scrapped vehicles. However, it's crucial to find a truly knowledgeable mechanic, as issues like the turbo and fuel consumption of these cars require special handling. Last time, I saved half the cost on a throttle body replacement—it all depends on whether the owner is honest. You might want to check out the condition of other Luxgen cars they've repaired first.

I've fixed the air conditioning issues on my Luxgen 7 SUV myself. Actually, many minor problems can be DIYed. For example, if the power windows stop working, it's usually due to poor switch contact - just disassemble and spray some WD40 to fix it. Keep an OBD scanner handy; you can read fault codes for just a few dozen bucks. Routine like oil and filter changes can definitely be done yourself. But don't force it when it comes to major repairs like transmission or engine overhauls - the parts in this car are arranged particularly compactly, requiring special tools for disassembly.

Last week, my neighbor's Luxgen MPV had its shock absorbers replaced at Tuhu. The advantage of chain stores is their transparent pricing and standardized procedures. Their system contains repair manuals for various vehicle models, and the parts channels are also legitimate. They are particularly suitable for standard services like and tire replacement. However, it's advisable to inform them of the model and year in advance, as parts for this brand vary significantly across different years. Remember to keep the work order, as the after-sales service at chain stores is more reliable.

My colleague's Luxgen broke down on the highway. The recommended practice is to first call the company for towing service. This car is prone to electronic failures, such as sudden power loss leading to complete vehicle lockout. Before repairs, confirm the fault symptoms and record video evidence. Priority should be given to specialized repair shops recommended by Luxgen owner forums, and it's best to supervise the repair process on-site. Always use new parts for critical components, as aftermarket parts may not last more than six months. Remember to obtain invoices for out-of-town repairs, as they will be useful for subsequent rights protection.
