How Does Servicing My Car Affect My Warranty?

In general, it’s important to have your car serviced regularly. These scheduled check-ups are just as important as your doctors’ appointments; they not only fix existing problems, but provide necessary maintenance and catch any issues early. Keeping up with regular service is great for your car’s health, but it’s also mandatory for your warranty. Here at  Mike Smith Chrysler Jeep Dodge, we want to make sure that your car stays healthy and your warranty remains intact.

Most car warranties require that you follow a certain schedule for your car’s service appointments, most usually at regular intervals throughout your car’s lifetime. If you don’t follow this schedule, you run the risk of voiding your warranty—and if something serious goes wrong with your car, like a part recall or a serious defect, you’re up a creek without a paddle.

To know how often to service your car, the best place to check is your owner’s manual, which usually comes in the glove compartment of your car. These owner’s manuals have tons of valuable information about your vehicle, including the manufacturer’s recommendations for when you should do certain things to your car, such as:

  • Have your oil changed
  • Have your power steering fluid checked and changed
  • Check hoses, belts, and cables
  • Have your automatic transmission fluid checked and changed
  • Check your lights
  • Replace wiper blades and fluid
  • Replace your engine air filter

Also, it’s a good idea to keep all of the records from these service visits, including any invoices and/or receipts. These may be necessary in the future, in case you need to present them for use of the warranty for a repair. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us! We’re always ready to help anyone in the greater  Beaumont, TX area and beyond.
