Core Tip: In general, when consumers buy a car and price concessions will be asked how much, configuration, how much fuel consumption, sale and maintenance costs, but few people buy a car because the warranty will be shaken. The one like a conventional warranty period, and no counter-offer price adjustment significance. Secondly, on the quality of some of the tricks hidden in businesses which are not easily detected.

    Auto Warranty: Automotive quality assurance time. Car warranty time and mileage points two conditions. If the warranty is 2 years / 60,000 km, meaning that owners use the car for 2 years or 60,000 km or less (whichever comes first), the provisions in the factory conditions of use, the test and verify that the product quality problems caused by the failure or parts damaged by the manufacturers to provide free repair or replacement of the corresponding spare parts.

    Today, economic globalization, we often hear a car auto show in Beijing, Shanghai Auto Show with the word "simultaneous global market" "world debut" gimmick, and the price "with international standards." Which manufacturers but have seen boldly said: "Our service quality and international standards" and "our warranty period global synchronization." Many multinational automobile warranty automobile brand was much shorter than in foreign countries, people feel a kind of discrimination against the domestic market.

    Major car manufacturers in the United States to implement the entire vehicle basic warranty is generally 3 years / 36,000 miles (equivalent to 57,600 kilometers), power systems generally 5-6 years warranty / 60 000 -10 million miles (equivalent to 96,000 16 million kilometers), and also most of the rust in the body 5-6 years of warranty commitments, but also lifetime warranty.

    But there are also official said, because of differences in quality of China's oil situation, traffic complexity, novice and more loss of relatively large vehicles, maintenance costs are high and therefore can not refer to foreign warranty. In addition, car manufacturers have turned to after-sale profits, naturally reluctant to increase the warranty period.

    Look at our own brand of cars, generally lower than the joint venture brands of warranty length:

    December 2004, Brilliance China Automotive took the lead for the Grandeur models, an important extension of its power and transmission parts warranty period to 10 years or 200,000 km

    July 15, 2008, Changan Benben Car Co., Ltd. announced the series of cars, vehicle quality and warranty from the original 2-year / 50,000 km extended to 4 years / 100,000 km.

    It is reported that the quality of the parts warranty period a total of 12 categories, among the engine systems, security systems, steering and braking systems outside the three systems, but also includes a fuel tank of the warranty, in addition, the quality of wearing parts warranty period will remain unchanged (bulb, the whole car glass, tires, spark plugs and other vulnerable parts of 15) quality of one month or 2,500 km.

    Even newcomers like Lifan also announced upgrades to service its products. New car for 2008 users, Lifan Auto Warranty 3-year warranty period will extend 60,000 kilometers, or upgrade to 5 years or 100,000 km, new car warranty at the same time also increased to 5 times.

    However, if such a promise is out, but not in time issues arise during the warranty period, its own brand this move looks like a show, a marketing tool. Is looking forward to its own brand in the continuous improvement of product quality, service line to the joint venture brand.

    It is understood that starting from December 2004 to seek the views of the "return home repair replacement automotive products liability provisions (draft)", the automobile three packs, three packs of the main assembly and the system is located at 2 years or 40,000 km 3 years or 60,000 km of the mandatory requirement. Although the provision has not yet been introduced, but if the manufacturers in setting warranty restrictions, then the consumers will continue.

    Now, most car manufacturers of the product warranty coverage do not include oil, spark plugs, filters, brake pads, brake discs, wipers, tires, batteries, light bulbs, fuses and many other projects, but also a problem within the warranty period to replacement parts, working hours are also consumers themselves pay fees.
