Automobile manufacturers stipulate that first insurance coverage must be within three months or 5,000 kilometers. Why is this stipulated?

It is not appropriate to use the word "whether it is legal" to describe the first car warranty. It is more appropriate to use the word "compliance" to describe it.

Generally when you buy a new car, the sales consultant will remind you: you need to come to the store for down payment after three months or about 5,000 kilometers. Of course, some brands offer this first insurance for free, and some brands pay for it at their own expense. The first guarantee is actually very simple, which is to replace the engine oil filter and check the air filter for you by the way. It takes 1-2 hours to complete the work.

Many friends will be curious, why do new cars need maintenance so soon? In fact, the reason is very simple. The oil in the engine of your new car is not filled when you buy the car, but has been filled when the vehicle leaves the factory. Because after the vehicle is assembled and inspected, it must be driven out of the workshop and put on a transport truck. After transportation, it will arrive at the 4S store for sale. During this process, the engine needs to be started several times! Depending on the model, there is a time range from leaving the factory to selling to customers, which may be 3 months or half a year. The time for imported models may be relatively longer. Engine oil also has a lifespan. If it is left for a long time, the engine oil may have deteriorated.

So when I buy a new car, no matter what day the car is produced, after paying the money and completing the procedures, I will not drive away immediately. I will ask the sales consultant to contact the after-sales department directly. The first warranty was done and all the oil and filter were replaced with new ones. Because I know that the engine oil filled at the factory may not be "good oil". I personally suggest that after buying a new car, it is best to do the first insurance according to the time specified by the manufacturer. If the first insurance does not cost money, then there is no need to pay for it later. Towed. Depending on the car model and engine, it is recommended that you do your homework in advance when choosing engine oil.
