Carefree Maintenance
The Carefree Maintenance** plan by Volkswagen is all about peace of mind and keeping your vehicle running smoothly. It comes standard on all 2020 models, and provides no-charge scheduled maintenance for 1-year or 10,000-miles, whichever occurs first. Routine maintenance includes a multi-point inspection, oil & filter change, tire rotation, dust & pollen filter replacement, and a Volkswagen Double Check. Plus, if you stop by within the first 30 days of ownership, we'll give your 2020 Volkswagen a basic checkup and explain your vehicle's features, like Bluetooth communication, DSG transmission, navigation system and anything else you'd like to know.
** The Carefree Maintenance program above is for 2020 models only. For 2009-2019 models please see dealership for details on the Carefree Maintenance program.
