Delaying Car Service Can Void Your Warranty?

Introduction

For many car owners, a warranty is an essential protection against unexpected damage. But is it true that delaying car service can void your warranty? The answer depends on your warranty terms and your service records. BJAK helps you understand what’s important.

1. Car Warranty Requirements

You must service your car according to the manufacturer’s schedule, or you’ll lose coverage for certain parts.

BJAK recommends checking your vehicle manual for service dates and type (minor, major) to stay compliant.

2. Service Records & Proof

Keep complete service records, including receipts, workshop reports, and technician signatures. BJAK allows storing these digitally for easy access when claiming warranty.

3. What Happens If Service Is Delayed

If service is delayed:

  • You may void certain warranty clauses
  • Repair costs might be your responsibility
  • The manufacturer could reject claims if records are incomplete

However, if you have valid reasons (workshop fully booked, car issues, or technical delays), manufacturers usually consider your claim.

4. How to Avoid Warranty Being Void

  • Schedule service ahead of time before due dates
  • Use authorized and registered workshops
  • Keep all receipts and documents
  • Use BJAK to check last service date and receive reminders

BJAK also helps you monitor service schedules so you don’t miss important dates.

5. BJAK Advantages for Car Owners
