It’s no secret that South African roads are some of the most notorious or difficult to travel on.
You can be cruising along when a pothole of inestimable depth can appear and attempt to suck your vehicle into its vortex.
Or, your car lurches skywards, with everyone and everything getting the kind of jolt chiropractors make their living out of.
The result can be unwanted and unneeded damage to your tyre, car or both.
Elmi van Beek at Suzuki South Coast encourages motorists to use reputable dealerships, like Suzuki, which can be relied on and trusted, when it comes to servicing your car or replacing parts.
She also cautions against taking short cuts and using cheaper ‘pirate’ parts. It may cost less in the short term but it may end up being more expensive in the long run.
Suzuki dealerships offers expertise and 12 month warranties on fitted genuine parts.
Most of Suzuki service intervals occur at 15 000km or once a year (whichever comes first), then every 15 000km or once a year (again, whichever comes first) after that.
Some Suzuki engines do require intervals of 10 000 km or one year, whichever comes first.
“While we all expect our cars to never let us down, sometimes we encounter a few hiccups. In those moments, we’re often tempted to fix the issues ourselves to avoid any additional costs by taking it to a dealership,” says Elmi.
“The first step in diagnosing your problem should ideally be to visit your local dealership.”
