In March, April, October and November, seasonal tire replacement is added to regular maintenance: cars are massively prepared for the summer and winter seasons. It is especially important after cold weather to check the condition of the suspension, the tightness of components and assemblies, and also pay attention to the cleanliness of the radiators and the performance of the air conditioner. Roman Timashov, Deputy General Director of the Avtodom group of companies, spoke about this in a conversation with Motor.
“The busy months for service centers are March, April, October and November, and the days of the week are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. And the second peak occurs on Saturday,” the expert noted.
According to him, Monday, Friday and Sunday are considered the least busy days. However, the situation may vary depending on the location of the car service, the category of clients (individuals or corporate fleets), brands served and other factors.
Prior to this, Roman Timashov reported that in the mass segment the average maintenance bill for Chinese cars under warranty increased by 10% – from 18 to 20 thousand rubles, and in the premium segment remained at 33 thousand rubles despite the increase in the cost of a standard hour (from 4 to 4.3 thousand rubles).
Earlier, a lawyer told how outbid companies deceive in contracts.
