Overview

Car ownership offers the ease and freedom to travel to a wide range of destinations. However, after all of those miles, you're bound to require an oil change, new tires, or something entirely different. You have two options for servicing your Mazda, unless you are mechanically savvy. You can take your vehicle to a dealership or an independent mechanic for service. Visiting a local car dealership such as Huntington Beach Mazda provides a multitude of benefits that independent mechanics may not offer. We have detailed a full list of these benefits, and would like to share the overall reasons to use an OEM Dealership when making your choice.

The Extra Benefits of Choosing a Dealership

While not essential, dealerships such as Huntington Beach Mazda do provide a variety of conveniences to assist in making service more enjoyable. Many provide free Wi-Fi, comfortable chairs, and, on occasion, popcorn and food in the waiting room. Shuttles or ride-sharing credit may also be provided, making errands or relaxing at home more convenient. Taking your vehicle in for service while you're already there might be a wonderful way to check out the latest models. In addition, if your automobile requires extensive work over several days, you may be able to borrow a vehicle and have a whole new driving experience.

How To Handle Scheduled Car Maintenance

The best method to learn how to manage any vehicle is to read through the service handbook. It was written by personnel from the factory that designed and produced it. It seems to reason that they should also understand how to keep things functioning smoothly. After reviewing the handbook and scheduling your appointment, it is important to review your warranty information. Mechanical faults will be addressed for free under the bumper-to-bumper warranty if your automobile is less than three years old depending on the limits of your warranty. This does not, however, cover wear items such as brake pads, and your car will still require "regular maintenance," for which you will be charged. Oil and filter changes, tire rotations, and numerous inspections are all part of routine maintenance. Routine maintenance typically becomes more involved and expensive after the period of your warranty. Make sure to capitalize on this to avoid paying for services that could be covered for free. Be sure to review offered service packages to save even more money. When you arrive at the dealership, you will be met by a "greeter," who will often take the vehicle identifying number (VIN) and mileage and record it on a form that will be delivered to the service adviser. Take your wallet, purse, laptop, and whatever else you need because your automobile is about to be driven away. The service adviser will then meet with you. Be sure to review all your options carefully to avoid paying unnecessary fees.
