What Is Factory Scheduled Maintenance?

Factory scheduled maintenance, sometimes referred to as 30/60/90K vehicle maintenance, is a maintenance schedule set by a vehicle manufacturer. Every automaker nowadays crafts a special list of items your car’s specific make and model needs throughout its lifetime. The list of services includes everything you can imagine, including oil changes, fluid flushes, tire rotations, and more. The mile intervals can also vary from one car to another. The standard mile marks are 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 miles.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF FOLLOWING YOUR FACTORY SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE?

Keeps Your Car Warranty Valid

Before you brush off this itinerary, you should know that your automaker’s warranty may outline that you have to follow their procedures. While you’re not entitled to go to the dealership for the services, your manufacturer can nullify your vehicle’s warranty if you are negligent.

Hold Better Value

When you keep up with this maintenance, your car will hold a higher value/resale price. This will make selling or trading in the car easier.

Prevention Costly Repairs

At the end of the day, this comprehensive maintenance schedule is all about protecting your investment. When you bring your car to Fast Lane European for regular service, our technicians can uncover minor problems before they turn into costly repairs down the line.

Extend Your Vehicle’s LIfespan

When your car runs efficiently and smoothly, it will ultimately last longer. A well maintained car can cover at least 200,000 miles or more.

WHAT MAINTENANCE ITEMS DOES IT INCLUDE?

Generally, each service interval may look different from one to the next. As your car puts on more miles, you may need more adjustments here and there. Below are several examples of what could be done in the shop:

• Oil change
• Brake services
• Tire check
• Fluid top off or flushes
• Lights inspection
• Timing belt inspection
