Chapter 197: Audi A4L (1)
Fang Yuan spoke in detail, many details and aspects were taken care of, Tong Lei and Zhou Hongbo felt that they had corrected many of their previous misunderstandings, and they thought that Fang Yuan was professional.
Tong Lei asked Fang Yuan curiously: "I also plan to buy a car in the future, but I feel that it is very expensive to do maintenance in a 4S shop, I want to find a place to do maintenance by myself, but I heard that I don't do maintenance in a 4S shop, and I will not give a warranty in the future, is this what it looks like?"
Zhou Hongbo is also very concerned about this problem: "I have a friend whose engine failed, because he went to the 4S store because he was still in the warranty period, but the 4S store did not give the warranty, saying that it was not maintained in their store and could not enjoy normal service." ”
"It's a question that happens a lot. Fang Yuan said that the warranty of 4S stores is indeed expensive, especially those imported and luxury models.
In fact, the most important thing in maintenance is the first warranty of a new car.
Going to the 4S shop to do the first warranty is not only to change the oil and oil filter, to keep your car always in a better state, but also to register the chassis number, frame number, etc., and enter all the vehicle information into the manufacturer's national warranty system, which is related to the future warranty.
If you don't go to the 4S store for the first warranty and are not entered into the manufacturer's national warranty system, you can't enjoy the warranty service and have no right to claim.
The time to go to the 4S store to do the first insurance, one is calculated according to the number of kilometers, according to the requirements of the car company, some are 5,000 kilometers, some are 7,000 kilometers, and some are 10,000 kilometers.
The other is calculated according to time, which is generally three months.
In short, it is to carefully check the maintenance instructions of your own car, and see clearly the time and kilometers required by the car company to do your own maintenance.
These two algorithms, there is no need to worry about which one is the most scientific, which one comes first and according to which standard to do the first insurance.
That is to say, if the maintenance manual requires 5,000 kilometers or three months to do the first insurance, but you run 5,000 kilometers in a month, then you can go to the 4S store to do the first insurance.
There are indeed very extreme examples, for example, the owner of the car bought a car and was hospitalized for three months, and his car was parked in place for three months without running a kilometer, and he could also negotiate with the 4S store to postpone the first insurance.
People's hearts are long, many 4S stores will also agree to the requirements of the car owner, of course, there will be 4S stores that do not agree, after all, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.
When Fang Yuan said this, he deliberately reminded Tong Lei that at this time, he should keep good evidence, such as the recording of the negotiation between the two parties, or the communication record on the computer and WeChat, just in case the 4S store staff who promised you resigned, and the person who took over later did not admit it, which can be regarded as fully protecting his rights and interests.
After the first guarantee, it was said that Tong Lei did not want to do maintenance in the 4S store.
Only do the first warranty in the 4S store, and all the maintenance after you find a place to do it belongs to the warranty.
Fang Yuan's reply to Tong Lei is don't do this, unless you can't find a local 4S store like Qoros, it is best to go to the 4S store honestly for maintenance during the warranty period, and spend more money on it.
Because if you don't do maintenance in the 4S shop, they really dare to refuse to claim or refuse the warranty, and the reason is also very strong, they will say that the failure of the car is caused by not maintaining it correctly on time, which is man-made damage and is not covered by the warranty.
During the warranty period, Fangyuan not only recommends going to the 4S shop for maintenance, but also according to the time or mileage specified in the maintenance manual, otherwise it will be considered out of warranty, so as to avoid the 4S store refusing to make a reasonable claim with the excuse that the last maintenance record cannot be found.
As for the warranty period, it is up to you to go wherever you want.
"Oh, I see. Tong Lei and Zhou Hongbo nodded at the same time, indicating that they understood.
Zhou Hongbo suddenly asked: "If I really forgot to maintain the car and the car broke down again, is there no way to do it?"
"Some parts are out of warranty, which will not affect the warranty of the whole vehicle. Fang Yuan made an analogy, if he didn't change the oil and filter in the 4S shop, he didn't give himself a warranty for the faulty gearbox, and the owner could complain about them.
......
Along the way, Fang Yuan explained to Zhou Hongbo in detail from the situation of Sonata 8 to all aspects of maintenance, and Zhou Hongbo completely dispelled the worries in his heart.
The reason why he raised one question after another was to test Fang Yuan, and judging from the final test results, Zhou Hongbo was very satisfied with Fang Yuan's performance.
felt that from Fang Yuan's professional quality, it was very reliable to buy a car at Zhenghong Auto Dealership, and finally officially expressed to Fang Yuan that he wanted to spend 70,000 Huaxia yuan to buy a white Audi A4L or Audi A6L, and emphasized that the reason why he bought Audi was to commute to work and drive out to work.
Fang Yuan has a car dealer system, and he already knew all this, and immediately told Zhou Hongbo that with a budget of 70,000 Chinese yuan, he wanted to buy Audi A4L, Audi A6L and other B-class and C-class cars, and he could buy the latest 09 models, the ten-year-old Audi A4L, and the latest 08 models, the Audi A6L that was ten years old.
Fang Yuan suggested that Zhou Hongbo buy a 09 Audi A4L, instead of buying a more old Audi A6L: "We Zhenghong Auto Dealership just has an Audi A4L2009 2.0TFSI comfort type, which was licensed in May 2009 with a mileage of 83,000 kilometers, and the new car landed 358,100 that year, and now the car dealer is listed for 70,000 ......."
"Why don't you recommend the C-class car Audi A6L, but the B-class car Audi A4L?" Zhou Hongbo thinks that a 08 model and a 09 model should be about the same, and he wants a larger and more comfortable C-class car Audi A6L.
"I'll tell you a little bit about it. ”
In fact, no matter whether Zhou Hongbo wants to buy A4L or A6L, for this kind of car about ten years old, Fang Yuan is more willing to recommend Japanese cars to him.
Even if the Japanese car is very old, has a lot of mileage, and even has some minor accidents, as long as it does not hurt the three major pieces, the A, B, and C pillars are no problem, if the price is right, Fang Yuan dares to sell it to Zhou Hongbo with confidence.
Because as long as the maintenance is carried out on time and correctly, and it is not ruthless when it is usually used, many Japanese cars can be hundreds of thousands of kilometers without overhauling, isn't there a joke, saying that the Prado of four or five hundred thousand kilometers has only passed the run-in period.
But Fang Yuan also understands Zhou Hongbo's thoughts, after all, in Huaxia Audi used to be an official car, even if the situation is not as good as before, it still belongs to the kind of business car that has a row and represents the luxury and high-end and status, everyone recognizes this brand, and Zhou Hongbo is also a reporter who often goes out to interview.
Audi does stand out.
Take the 09 Audi A4L recommended by Fang Yuan to Zhou Hongbo as an example, this is the B8 version of the Audi A4L, and it is also the first elongated Audi A4L in Huaxia The rear space is very large, beating the biggest competitors of the year, BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-class.
At that time, sales were booming, and if you wanted to buy a car, you had to increase the price, so the number of holdings was huge, and the value retention rate was very stable.
That is, from this time on, no matter what models were produced in Huaxia, as long as they were not lengthened, they would not be easy to sell, forming a trend of lengthening.
