Suzuki and Kia have now joined other carmakers in offering extended warranty coverage and preventive maintenance service grace period in light of the COVID-19 pandemic gripping the Philippines.

In accordance with the Philippine government direction to mitigate COVID-19, Suzuki Philippines has ordered all its dealerships—automobile, motorcycle, and marine products to suspend its operations under further notice.

In light of that decision, the Japanese carmaker is extending warranties expiring during the period of Enhanced Community Quarantine by three months granted that owners follow the Suzuki standard warranty policy. This covers motorcycle, automobile, and marine product customers. For units due for PMS during the quarantine period, Suzuki Philippines is likewise granting a special servicing extension of three months.

Meanwhile, Kia’s new distributor, Ayala Automotive is offering a 30-day extension after the lifting of the Enhanced Community Quarantine for expiring warranties, while PMS grace periods are extended by 15 days.
