Does my car need to have full service history?

The manufacturer sets the recommended intervals that your vehicle should be serviced based on distance travelled and time passed.

Having good, clean oil is vital for correct operation of major mechanical components on your vehicle like the engine and gearbox. Oil, air and fuel filters help to prevent damage caused by dirt and debris.

If your vehicle has a full service history, meaning services have been carried out by a VAT registered garage at the recommended intervals then you can purchase our warranty and continue to service the vehicle on that basis.

If your vehicle does not have full service history, for example a service has been missed entirely or carried out late then to have our warranty then you must have the vehicle serviced within 12 months or 12,000 miles,(whichever is sooner) of purchasing the vehicle.

When you make a claim your will be required to prove the vehicles service history, if you cannot then the claim will be rejected. Proof of service is in the form of VAT invoices from a bone fide garage.
