Will I lose my warranty if I service my car outside the dealer?
Generally, warranty terms depend on your contract: read it and follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule. Keep every invoice as proof of service. If in doubt, check with the manufacturer. General repair and maintenance →
What maintenance is due at what mileage?
The exact schedule is in your owner's manual. It covers oil, filters, fluids, spark plugs, belts and brakes. Bring your manual or invoices and we can look at what's due. General repair and maintenance →
Do I need to change transmission fluid?
It depends on the vehicle: some manuals give an interval, others say lifetime fluid under normal conditions. City driving, towing or cold often count as severe conditions. Follow your manual and have the fluid condition checked. Transmission →
When should the timing belt be replaced?
Follow your manual's interval; some engines have a chain instead of a belt. A belt that breaks can cause major engine damage. Check your invoices to see if it's already been replaced. General repair and maintenance →
How do I know if my car has a recall?
Search Transport Canada's recall database or enter your VIN on the manufacturer's website. Recall repairs are done by a dealer for that brand. Check from time to time. Source: Transport Canada : rappels General repair and maintenance →
