Service Schedules

The vehicle must be serviced by a VAT registered garage, six months or 6,000 miles [whichever is the sooner] from the date of or mileage at purchase, and thereafter at intervals of six months or 6,000 miles [whichever is the sooner], and must consist of:

  • Check coolant level and anti-freeze/inhibitor strength. Top up where necessary.
  • Check timing belt [if fitted], renew if necessary.
  • Brake fluid must be replaced in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendation.

The interval from the purchase date to the first service and the intervals between services must not exceed the stipulated time or mileage by more than 21 days or 500 miles. This time allowance is to facilitate the vehicle owner to make sure services are completed at the correct intervals. If any circumstances prevent the service being carried out at the correct time World of Warranty must be informed immediately by recorded delivery.

As an option the vehicle may be serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommended service schedule by a VAT registered garage. If you have details of when the last service was carried out, such as a correctly completed entry in the service booklet or a previous service, you may service the vehicle at the recommended interval from that service. Please retain proof of the previous service for our inspection in the event

If no details are available to confirm that the vehicle is within the manufacturer’s recommended service limits then the first service must be carried out at the latest within six months or 6,000 miles [whichever is the sooner] from the date/mileage at purchase but preferably at the first available opportunity.

The intervals between services must not exceed the manufacturer’s stipulated maximum excess time or mileage allowances.

The only acceptable proof of servicing will be the fully detailed VAT service invoice[s] indicating servicing dates and mileages. You must keep these invoices for our inspection in the event of a claim.

Failure to maintain and provide proof that the above service schedule has been completed will invalidate the Mechanical Breakdown Insurance Policy.

Warning

Timing belts [otherwise known as camshaft drive belts].

If your vehicle has a timing belt, please make sure that it is in good condition and that it is checked and changed in line with the manufacturer’s recommendations. If the timing belt breaks it can cause serious and unnecessary engine damage and inconvenience. No responsibility will be accepted for damage caused by the failure of a worn-out timing belt.
