When you book a Vauxhall service through Smart Care, the types of checks that are included vary depending on the type of service you book.
Manufacturer service
If you book a manufacturer service, we'll carry out the checks specified in the Vauxhall service schedule, according to the age, model and mileage of your vehicle. This will ensure that if your Vauxhall is still within the warranty period, the warranty will remain valid.
If you're unsure whether your vehicle is still under warranty, you can usually find out on the manufacturer's website.
Interim or full service
If you choose not to have a manufacturer service, you can instead opt for our interim or full service options. We've listed what's included in each one, so you can decide which is right for you.
