Debunking Car Myths: What Really Works and What Doesn’t

Myth: Vehicles Have To Be Serviced At Dealerships To Maintain Warranty

Many drivers think that they must service their vehicles at dealerships to keep their warranties valid. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act states that car owners don’t have to use dealership services to maintain their warranty coverage.

Manufacturers can’t void a warranty if an independent mechanic performs the maintenance as long as the work meets proper standards. So, feel free to choose a reputable service provider for maintenance without worrying about losing your warranty.
