Frequently Asked Questions

• Is a maintenance plan the same as a vehicle service contract?

  No, they are distinct. A maintenance plan covers routine services like oil changes and tire rotations, while a vehicle service contract (VSC) covers unexpected mechanical breakdowns after the manufacturer's warranty expires. Both offer financial protection but for different types of automotive needs.

• Can I transfer my maintenance plan if I sell my vehicle?

  Many maintenance plans are transferable to a new owner, which can significantly increase the resale value of your vehicle. Please refer to your specific plan's terms and conditions for details on transferability and any associated fees.

• Are genuine parts used for all services?

  Yes, all services performed under our maintenance plans utilize genuine manufacturer parts and are conducted by factory-trained and certified technicians, ensuring the highest quality of care for your vehicle.

• What if I miss a scheduled service appointment?

  While it's best to adhere to the recommended service schedule, we understand that life happens. Please contact our service department as soon as possible to reschedule. Most plans offer a grace period for missed appointments, but consistent adherence ensures optimal vehicle performance and warranty compliance.
