Car Warranty Service Requirements: What You Need to Know to Stay Covered

What Are Car Warranty Service Requirements?

Car warranty service requirements are the basic maintenance and documentation standards you must follow to keep your warranty active.

These requirements exist to make sure your vehicle is properly maintained and that mechanical failures aren’t caused by neglect.

Common warranty service requirements include:

• 🛢️ Regular oil and filter changes at the manufacturer’s recommended intervals

• 🚗 Routine maintenance (tire rotations, fluid flushes, spark plugs, battery, etc.)

• 🧾 Keeping service receipts and maintenance logs

• 🧰 Using certified repair facilities when required by your plan

When you buy a warranty through Cuvrd partners, you’ll get a clear, transparent list of requirements so there are no surprises when it’s time to file a claim.

Why These Requirements Matter

Skipping routine maintenance can do more than harm your car — it can also void your warranty.

If a covered component fails (like your engine or transmission) and the warranty administrator finds that it wasn’t properly maintained, they can legally deny your claim.

That’s why it’s crucial to:

• Stick to your vehicle’s maintenance schedule

• Save all receipts and records (especially oil changes)

• Follow your warranty contract’s service intervals

• Use approved parts and fluids

When in doubt, your warranty contract will spell out what’s required — and Cuvrd makes sure it’s written in plain English, not fine print.

How to Stay in Compliance

Here’s how to make sure you’re always meeting your car warranty’s service requirements:

1. Follow your owner’s manual.
   Use it as your maintenance guide — it lists exactly when each service should be done.

2. Keep proof of service.
   Hold onto receipts for oil changes, transmission fluid changes, filters, and inspections. Keep them in a folder or digital file.

3. Ask for detailed invoices.
   Make sure your shop lists mileage, date, and what services were performed.

4. Don’t skip small maintenance.
   Even skipping one oil change or using the wrong type of fluid could cause problems later.

When you follow these steps, your car — and your warranty — will both last longer.
