As the time of use increases, car parts will wear out or be abnormal. Regular maintenance can keep the vehicle in good condition and improve the efficiency of the vehicle. It's just that some old drivers seem to be disgusted to send their cars to 4S shops for maintenance. What's going on, exactly? Don't you like it just because it's too expensive?
Actually, it's not what the public thinks. The maintenance items of the 4S shop are indeed a little higher, but they are also within the acceptable range of the car owner. After all, 4S stores also have operating costs, and in order to survive, it is understandable that the pricing is a little higher. Some 4S shops also know the way to long-term business, and in order to attract customers, they give some benefits, such as giving car owners basic maintenance times, free oil filters, etc. In addition, some car brands also have maintenance discounts for old car owners**, which can save a lot of expenses after one set. So, the question arises, if it is not the 4S shop ** expensive, then why don't the old drivers like to go to the 4S shop for maintenance?
First, the process steps of the 4S shop and the repair shop are highly similar, and the old driver does not need to send the vehicle to the 4S shop for maintenance. As the saying goes, a long illness becomes a good doctor. When the number of vehicle maintenance is more, you must also understand what maintenance is all about. Items such as oil changes, air cleaners, and spark plugs sound tall at first glance. But in fact, these operations are not difficult, they belong to basic maintenance, and owners with strong hands-on ability can easily complete them.
Second, some 4S stores have heavy marketing tasks, and relevant personnel will always go to great lengths to tirelessly recommend some unnecessary car maintenance items to car owners, such as replacing car parts in advance, deep cleaning, etc. Not only are these items expensive, but they are also unnecessary. Some people who lack concentration or car knowledge will fall into the "trap" and increase car maintenance expenses in vain. In addition, excessive maintenance of vehicles is harmful and the gains outweigh the losses.
Third, 4S stores are unevenly distributed, and it is not necessarily convenient to go to 4S stores. The degree of development of each region is different, and there are no 4S shops in some small towns, so if the owner wants to maintain it, then he has to go to the city, and it takes a lot of time and energy to come and go. The distribution of chain auto repair shops is much denser, and the car owners are highly selective.
Fourth, some old drivers are not obsessed with "original accessories". Some car owners pursue the original, when the car has problems and needs to replace parts, they always tell the maintenance staff that the "original parts" with a high price are high. It's just that the original parts of some vehicles have to be shipped from overseas to China, which takes a long time, and the owner will not be able to drive on the road for a long time. And the old drivers focus on practicality, they are not obsessed with "original parts", but they will also look at the brand of accessories.
The above is the reason why old drivers don't like to go to 4S shops to maintain their vehicles. If you know how to drive and have strong hands-on ability, then some basic maintenance items can be done by yourself. If you are a newbie, then a 4S store is a more secure option. That's all for today, thank you for reading.
