• Driving in severe conditions (frequent short trips, extreme temperatures, towing, stop-and-go traffic) may require more frequent service—our technicians will advise based on your driving profile.
• Regular checks and dealer-performed oil changes help preserve warranty coverage; any covered repairs must be completed at a certified dealership.
• Routine service at the dealership maintains a complete service history, which supports resale value and long-term ownership savings.
