Will the warranty be voided if the second maintenance is not done at a 4S shop?

[OHenry]

In theory, it is possible to not perform the second and subsequent maintenance at a 4S shop, as consumers have the right to choose services. Here are some considerations for not doing maintenance at a 4S shop: 1. Generally, the three guarantees for a car have mileage or time limits. If you do not follow the regulations and fail to perform maintenance or repairs at a 4S shop on time, the manufacturer may cancel the warranty commitment on the grounds of improper maintenance or repairs. Another point is that the warranty periods for different parts of the car vary (you can check the manual). If you do not go to the 4S shop for maintenance on time, it may be troublesome or even result in denied claims if a part fails and requires compensation. 2. If you want to perform maintenance outside, choose a familiar and reputable maintenance shop that can provide formal invoices and product qualification certificates. Try to use good-quality oil and filters, and keep the invoices and qualification certificates properly. In case the vehicle has problems and requires manufacturer warranty, you can provide these documents.
