Of course late is better than never! But, and this is a big BUT! It is not good to be late when you have a brand new vehicle.
Today we had a brand new GMC truck in the shop for it's very first oil change. The reason it came into the shop was because the Oil Change Reminder Light was on. The manufacturer wants you to have your oil changes completed every 5000 km. By completing the oil changes on schedule your warranty is valid.
The mileage on the vehicle in the shop today? 12773. 7773 kms over the manufacturer's suggested maintenance schedule! Not Good.
So please - although your vehicle might have a light to remind you to change your oil, remember it is not always accurate and may cause you warranty issues in the future.
Just a little information for you new car owners out there!
Until Tomorrow.
