Gaadi maintain karna sasta nahi hota, lekin agar aap thodi smartness dikhayein, toh aap hazaron rupaye bacha sakte hain. Aksar hum ignore kar dete hain ki humare paas pehle se hi kuch aise perks maujood hote hain jo free service offer karte hain. Aaiye jaante hain wo 5 tarike jinse aap apni car ki maintenance cost ko zero ke kareeb la sakte hain.
Company Ke 'Free Service Camps' Ka Mauka
Kya aapko pata hai ki Maruti, Hyundai, aur Tata jaisi companiyan saal mein 2-3 baar 'Free Service Camps' lagati hain? Monsoon camp ya Winter camp ke naam par hone wale in events mein 50-point checkup, top-wash, aur fluid top-up bilkul free hota hai. Is dauran labor charges par bhi bhaari discount milta hai. Service center ki calls ko spam samajh kar ignore na karein, yeh ek bada 'Savings Alert' hai.
DIY: Khud Bane Mechanic (Labor Cost Zero)
Service bill ka bada hissa 'Labor Cost' hota hai. Chote-mote kaam jaise Cabin Air Filter badalna, Wiper Fluid bharna, ya Coolant check karna aap ghar par 5 minute mein kar sakte hain. Mechanics in chote kaamon ke liye ₹300 se ₹500 charge karte hain. YouTube par basic tutorials dekh kar aap yeh kaam free mein kar sakte hain aur mechanic ke fraud se bhi bach sakte hain.
Credit Card Aur Reward Points Ka Khel
Apna wallet check karein, ho sakta hai aapke paas free service ka khazana ho. Kai premium Credit Cards aur Fuel Cards (jaise IOCL ya BPCL cards) reward points dete hain jinhe aap authorised service centers par redeem kar sakte hain. Kuch cards ke saath Roadside Assistance (RSA) free milta hai, jo minor repairs aur jump-start free mein provide karte hain. Iska fayda uthana seekhein.
Insurance Ka 'Consumables Cover' Add-on
Jab bhi gaadi service ya repair ke liye jaati hai, toh oil, nut-bolts, aur grease ka paisa aapki jeb se lagta hai, bhale hi insurance ho. Lekin agar aapne policy mein 'Consumables Cover' liya hai (jo mushkil se ₹200-300 ka hota hai), toh insurance company in sabka paisa degi. Yeh technically 'Free' nahi hai, lekin bill ke time par aapko ek rupaya bhi extra nahi dena padega.
Goodwill Warranty Ki Power
Agar aapki car ki warranty khatam ho gayi hai aur koi bada part kharab ho gaya, toh turant paise mat dijiye. Service manager se 'Goodwill Warranty' ki maang karein. Agar aapne hamesha authorised center se service karayi hai, toh company loyal customers ke liye labor aur parts ka cost maaf kar deti hai ya heavy discount deti hai. Yeh ek hidden policy hai jo sirf maangne par milti hai.
- Camp dates ke liye company ki app check karte rahein.
- Apne Credit Card ke benefits brochure ko dhyan se padhein.
- Wiper blades aur filters online khareed kar khud lagayein.
- Service advisor se hamesha 'Discounts' ke baare mein puchein.
Thodi si jaagrukta aapki car ownership cost ko aadhi kar sakti hai.
