Australian Vehicle Manufacturer’s Warranty

Automotive technology has changed rapidly, particularly over the last 10 years. Modern vehicles now utilise advanced electrical systems to control vehicle functions. Everything from braking to headlights is now automated, including the advanced safety features.

To properly diagnose and maintain these complex systems, Bosch Car Service technicians have access to advanced technical training and equipment directly from Bosch – a leader in automotive technology and the company behind many of the complex systems in your car.

You can trust the competence of our Bosch Car Service trained technicians. They’re always 100% focused on performing the highest level of vehicle servicing.

There are two main types of new car warranties.

1.Vehicle manufacturer’s warranty

A vehicle manufacturer’s warranty is a promise to the consumer that the vehicle will be free from defects for a certain period of time. In the event of any defects, the consumer is entitled to a repair or compensation by the vehicle manufacturer.

For this type of warranty, new vehicle servicing is permitted at Bosch Car Service workshops, as vehicles are serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s requirements:

• Servicing is carried out according to the manufacturer’s instructions by qualified trained technicians
• Quality replacement parts are used
• Fluids and lubricants also meet manufacturer’s specifications

After servicing your new car at Bosch Car Service, we will stamp your vehicle service booklet and your manufacturer’s warranty will remain safe. It will not void your warranty.

2.Extended warranties offered by dealers

It is common practice for car dealers to offer their own extended warranties on new cars. These usually begin at the completion of the manufacturer’s warranty.

A common requirement for an extended dealers warranty isthat the car be serviced by the dealer offering the warranty. In this instance, an independent workshop such as Bosch Car Service will void the warranty if they service the car under this extended warranty.

If you are unsure of the conditions of your extended warranty by the dealer, please ask our helpful Bosch Car Service staff to assist you.

If your new vehicle is under warranty, your scheduled servicing will need to be performed at the dealership.
