There’s a common misconception among car owners that in order to preserve the warranty on a newly purchased vehicle, one must return to the original dealership for log book servicing. However, this is far from the truth. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has repeatedly clarified that car owners have the liberty to select any qualified mechanic or service centre for their log book services. This revelation liberates you from the perceived obligation of sticking with dealership services solely to maintain your car's warranty, allowing you to explore a variety of service options that may be more convenient or cost-effective.

The reason behind this rule is to ensure fair competition within the automotive industry and to protect the rights of consumers to choose where they have their vehicle serviced.

One of the key responsibilities that car owners have is to ensure that they maintain their Log Book schedule, as this is critical in ensuring that their statutory rights to a new car warranty are protected.
