Why Should You Service Your Car Regularly?
As human beings, our health is our first priority, and we take good care of it. Similarly, the vehicle’s health matters the most to deliver good and efficient performance. That’s why servicing the car regularly and carrying out repair work promptly are extremely important.
They result in optimal performance and enhanced fuel efficiency, which in turn will also keep the running costs in check. Ignoring the service intervals or not fixing a minor issue can lead to costly repair bills.
Types of Car Service Centres
Here are the different types of car service centres you can find to service your car.
Authorised Service Centres
These are brand-specific authorised service centres. Typically, to keep your vehicle's warranty intact, periodic service ( especially the first free services) must be done through these service centres. You can also buy genuine spare parts from these service centres.
Multi-Brand Service Centres
These are independent service centres that can handle different brands and models. They are capable of handling all types of car services, from periodic maintenance to major repairs, regardless of the brand.
Factors to Consider when Choosing a Car Service Centre
Here are a few points to consider when choosing a car service centre.
Reputation and Reviews
Check for online user reviews to get an idea about the credibility of the service centre. Choosing a reliable service centre is crucial to maintaining your vehicle.
Infrastructure and Expertise
Ensure that the car service centre has qualified and experienced technicians. Also, check with the service centre if they have the equipment to service or repair your vehicle. Without proper facilities and experienced mechanics, service quality can be compromised.
Service Cost
A service centre should be transparent about the service cost and offer competitive prices. However, this is not the sole factor to consider. Ensure that the service centre does not upsell services that are not required for your vehicle.
Genuine Spare Parts
Opt for a service centre that uses OEM spare parts. Using aftermarket parts to lower the repair cost can lead to more problems, as they may have quality issues. Confirm upfront if the service centre used genuine spare parts before taking your car for a service.
Turnaround Time
This is an important factor if you rely on your car for daily commuting. Check how long it would take to service your vehicle and whether they offer a pick-up and drop-off service. Quick turnaround times can be convenient as you need not wait for days to get your vehicle back.
Customer Service
Select a service centre that provides excellent customer service. Whether it's communication regarding the vehicle service/repair, the experience they offer at the workshop, or after-service support, ensure you get the best for the money you pay.
Due to heavy traffic and stop-and-go driving, service your car every 6 months. This helps combat wear and tear caused by Bangalore’s urban stress on brakes, engine, and suspension.
Once the warranty expires, multi-brand centres are cost-effective options with quality service. Just ensure they use OEM parts and have skilled mechanics for your car's make and model.
Yes, if it’s for basic maintenance like an oil change or filter cleaning, it saves time in traffic. However, complex repairs still require a full-fledged garage setup.
Unexplained costs, poor customer reviews, no transparency in diagnosis, and use of non-genuine parts are major red flags. Always ask for a detailed job card and invoice.
Not necessarily. Cheap quotes may mean substandard parts or service shortcuts. Focus on value, not just cost. Ensure they offer a warranty on parts and labour.
Delaying minor repairs can escalate the problem. Worn brake pads can damage discs, increasing repair costs. Safety is compromised too, especially in unpredictable Bangalore traffic.
Bangalore’s potholes and speed breakers wreak havoc on alignment. Regular checks ensure better handling, tyre life, and mileage, saving you money in the long run.
If you're suggested frequent replacements without symptoms, or the technician uses vague explanations, it’s a red flag. Always ask for old parts back to verify the replacement.
Yes, short trips don’t let the engine reach optimal temperature, leading to carbon buildup and battery drainage. In Bangalore’s stop-start traffic, it’s a silent car killer over time.
