In order for the dealer to honor the warranty, will a receipt of purchasing motor oil and filter suffice?

For the warranty to remain valid. Do you have to take the car to the dealer for every oil change? Or will buying the oil from the parts store be good enough with a receipt?In order for the dealer to honor the warranty, will a receipt of purchasing motor oil and filter suffice?
If you do your own service, receipts dated slightly before the service are definitely a plus. And whether you do something, or some other 3rd party, you or that other person should always make a dated notation in your warranty booklet. If a 3rd person, have them sign it. There are laws that say you don't have to have the dealer do it for the warranty to be good, or use their brand of oil or anti-freeze and such either. But they have lawyers who are always looking for loopholes. Especially if they have a flood of claims because of a defect.In order for the dealer to honor the warranty, will a receipt of purchasing motor oil and filter suffice?
Yes, a receipt is fine for documentation purposes.





It's not the dealer who honors the warranty, its the automaker. The dealer is just the middleman.





If the engine fails for some reason, it is up to the automaker to prove that it was your neglect that did the damage. As long as you have some documentation to prove you maintained the car, you are safe. The rest is on the automaker.
You do not have to get your oil changed at the dealership. I don't know that receipts are required but it couldn't hurt to hold on to them just in case they try to give you a hard time one day. I would even keep a mileage log of when you change the oil (if you're not already).
NO. I change my oil myself and the dealer justt replaced my transmission at 60k miles. Its not about a brand. Its about mechanical failure.
just keep your receipts and mark down the oil changes and mileage in your owners manual.
