RogerNg_185295 6th Gear March 10, 2019 Share March 10, 2019 Stop your fearmongering! Donât you know that the ADs are not supposed to void your car warranty if you choose not to perform the car servicing in-house anymore? This is true since 31st Dec 2017 and also retroactively applies for cars already purchased but with the warranty still active. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/car-dealers-independent-workshops-warranty-void-9488024 Why ?Any recourse if the AD decide to void warranty? Which govt agency gonna help you? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceecookie 5th Gear March 10, 2019 Share March 10, 2019 (edited) The front 3m solar film given is also not very good. But heard that the rebate for not taking the solar film given is quite low so up to you to decide if solar film quality is importantI agree the film installation by tuff kote is not top par. But good thing is that their warranty exchange is hassle free - just make an appointment to go down and they will exchange without qns.

Ahtea 3rd Gear March 10, 2019 Share March 10, 2019 No trade in leh. First car Hmm. Maybe you should try another sales at other places. I have seen some guys here getting a good deal at RTMT. If they give you what you want and you still prefer your existing SE, tell him/her politely that you managed to see a better deal outside and if he/she can match it. The front 3m solar film given is also not very good. But heard that the rebate for not taking the solar film given is quite low so up to you to decide if solar film quality is important Rebates for not taking any of the bundled package items is usually pathetic. I think the Solar Film itself is alright, just that the workmanship of the installation is not exactly good. I agree the film installation by tuff kote is not top par. But good thing is that their warranty exchange is hassle free - just make an appointment to go down and they will exchange without qns. No need make appointment. I just drove down to get it rectified. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily1986 5th Gear March 10, 2019 Share March 10, 2019 Why ?Any recourse if the AD decide to void warranty? Which govt agency gonna help you? Maybe you should state if you know of someone who has had his or her warranty voided after 31st Dec 2017 because of this. Otherwise, you are just making a baseless post. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily1986 5th Gear March 10, 2019 Share March 10, 2019 (edited) Maybe you can try answering my questions? 1. Seek clarification and understand the basis of warranty voidance from the AD 2. If this fails, contact CCS https://www.cccs.gov.sg/approach-cccs https://www.cccs.gov.sg/-/media/custom/ccs/files/media-and-publications/publications/market-studies/market-inquiry-on-car-parts-in-singapore.pdf?la=en&hash=E0D379817025A8EC75E2A4EBBF9075F19322A527 Source cited Edited March 10, 2019 by Happily1986 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
