Answer · Warranty

Do I lose my warranty if I do not use a main dealer?

Short answer

No. Under Block Exemption rules retained in UK law, you can have your car serviced by any qualified independent as long as the work follows the manufacturer's schedule and uses parts of matching quality. Your warranty stays intact and dealers cannot require otherwise.

Keep the paperwork. A digital service record listing date, mileage, work done and parts used is what protects you if a warranty claim is ever questioned. Motor Servicing emails that record after every visit, and the technician will stamp a paper service book on request.
