Motability Car Maintenance
All vehicles need servicing to keep them running happily, luckily, with a vehicle on the Motability scheme the cost of your servicing and any maintenance needed due to general wear are all included in your worry-free Motability package.
What's included in a Motability car service?
Servicing checks can differ between different manufacturers but typically, you can expect the service on your Motability car to include the below:
- Engine oil
- Windscreen washer fluid
- Lights
- Tyre tread
- Tyre pressure (including a spare tyre if applicable)
- Engine cooling system
The professionals looking after your vehicle will be able to provide detailed information about any additional checks that are carried out when you book your service. If checks are required for any adaptations fitted on your vehicle , they will also be covered by the package so there are no extra fees or charges to worry about.
Waiting for your Motability car
The length of a service can vary, so it might be a good idea to arrange transportation home. If you've given the dealership three weeks' notice from when you booked, they should be able to provide you with a non-adapted courtesy car.
Keep a record
Make sure the dealer updates your car's service book after each service and keep this safe as it may be required in the future.
For all car servicing and maintenance, you should take your car to the dealer that has been assigned as your managing dealer. Servicing will either be at set times during your lease agreement or when your car has been driven a certain number of miles.
