TC vs AutoSaver Servicing

(1/7) > >>

HJB:
Hi All,

My 20K servicing is near and looking for a few options.

For price comparison, for 20K-50K, 4 servicing (with GST):
AS - < $700
TC - $1100

Other than these, not sure abt the rest liao. Can any bro/sis please advise which is better?

clarence:
Of course send outside to service which is cheaper is better.

Some forumers have also said Tan Chong entertained thair warranty claims even thought they did not send their Nissan back for servicing during warranty period.

robtan99:

My philosophy is expensive ones go autosavers, cheap one go TCM.


If really get into any warranty trouble, i let the 2 company fights.
Coz Autosaver is following the nissan handbook for maintenance.

When that really happens, you will still be the one who loogie because you will be out of a car while the 2 are fighting.
Unless Autosaver is a Nissan authorised service center, it will be a difficult fight because TC will say they cannot ensure AS will carry out all the maintenance as required even when AS is using the manual. Go to Nissan corporate and they will say the same.

I know TC also cut corners at times but they are authorised. If something goes wrong, they are fully responsible. No excuses.
The reason why authorised service centres are ex because they are subjected to audits and are fully liable. If something goes wrong, and case goes all the way up to OEM, cannot run away one.

Of course, this also leads to parallel import debate...

This is different from the waiver that TC gets us to sign when we bring in our own engine oil. That waiver holds no water because Nissan does not recommend a brand. As long as oil is API SM certified and within the rnage recommended by Nissan, they cannot void warranty. This case can fight to Nissan corporate one.

clarence:
At least TC is reasonable.

C&C & Kah Motors don't allow customers to bring their own engine oil, and their in-house engine oil is not that great either.
