European car servicing in Benalla

Saunders Automotive are the right choice for new car service in Benalla. 

You always have the choice of where your vehicle is serviced, maintained and repaired, at competitive prices, without voiding either the manufacturers warranty or your rights under the Consumer Guarantee.

You do not have to take the car back to the dealership who sold it to you for service or repairs. Provided the work is overseen to the manufacturers specifications by a suitably skilled person and uses tolerable quality parts and fluids, the warranty stands. 

With Repco Authorised Service you can tick all the boxes. Every Saunders Automotive mechanic is fully qualified and Auto-Tech trained, giving them access to Australia's leading provider of automotive technical information and training. This means Saunders Automotive mechanics are kept fully up to date with the latest in automotive service techniques and are able to service your new car without voiding the warranty.

Repco branded parts & products are manufactured to stringent Repco quality standards, and are covered by the Repco Nationwide Warranty, giving you added protection. Saunders Automotive will also only ever use fluids and lubricants that meet the specifications of the original car manufacturer.

If you already own a new car or are thinking of purchasing one, make sure you clearly understand where your statutory rights begin and end

Make sure you are aware of the differences between manufacturer, statutory and extended warranties to avoid making the wrong selection when it comes to servicing your new car. You are automatically covered by a statutory warranty, also known as a Consumer Guarantee, under Australian Consumer Law (ACL) and this statutory protection can never be superseded by manufacturer or express warranties (which are offered by the car maker and car dealer respectively).

A lack of disclosure requirements on car dealers at the point of sale regarding these contracts can easily lead the consumer into making a choice to be bound by a long term contract without access to all of the details needed to make a properly informed decision.

So when purchasing a new vehicle, be on guard for new car dealers who may try to include “express” or “extended” warranties, often for free. As a general rule these ‘extra' warranties may include quite comprehensive restrictions or provisions, and are not always what they are cracked up to be. Many times these promises provide no real additional benefits not already given by the consumer's basic statutory rights and can tie the unwary buyer into a long term agreement with the dealership that sold the car.

Such promises are very unlikely to focus on the potential negative aspects involved with taking a new car back to the dealer for service or repair. This includes how far you will need to go to get your car serviced or longer waiting times due to fewer available service locations or mechanics.

The right choice for new car service in Benalla

Let's hit the brakes right here and talk about a topic that could determine your car's lifespan, its performance and safety - regular car servicing. We're simply taking you under the hood, courtesy of the top mechanic in Benalla, Saunders Automotive. With a reputation for top-tier car servicing and automotive repairs, we aim to throw some light on the necessity of car servicing.

Now, we understand your possible hesitation at regular car service. The thought of going through your owner’s manual and noting down when to get what done can seem like a hassle. But imagine having your vehicle stall mid-road trip because you failed to get the oil changed.

But why, exactly, should you commit to regular car servicing? We're glad you asked.

Yes, routine checks and oil changes are like superfood for your car. With Saunders Automotive's quality servicing, rest assured that your vehicle will be running in peak condition. Your car is a serious financial investment.

Besides boosting your car’s performance, servicing plays a crucial role in guaranteeing your safety. From your brakes to the steering system, each component is meticulously inspected and taken care of at Saunders Automotive.

Undiagnosed problems could mean unexpected and often costly repairs. Regular servicing can prevent this by detecting minor problems early on. Saving you money and time off the road.

It's equally crucial to keep in mind the replacement of some key car parts during service. Engine oil, air filters and spark plugs are usually at the top of this list. Skipping these changes could lead to decreased engine performance, poor fuel economy and in the worst case, complete engine failure.

At Saunders Automotive, your local mechanic in Benalla, we don’t just ensure that your vehicle is up to date on its servicing; we're also a part of Australia's largest network of independent car service workshops – Repco Authorised Service.
