Does a Mobile Logbook Service Void Your New Car Warranty?

The Truth for QLD Drivers

If you’ve recently picked up a new set of wheels, you’ve likely been told by the dealership that you must return to them for every service to keep your warranty intact.

It’s a common story we hear from drivers in Brisbane, Logan, and Ipswich . But is it true?

The short answer is: No. Under Australian Consumer Law, you have the "Right to Choose" your repairer. As long as your vehicle is serviced by a qualified technician according to the manufacturer’s specifications, your statutory warranty remains 100% valid.

At My Mechanic Qld , we provide dealership-grade mobile logbook servicing that comes directly to your driveway or workplace, saving you the "dealership tax" and the hassle of a waiting room.

What is a Logbook Service?

Unlike a basic "minor service," a logbook service is a comprehensive examination of your vehicle at specific intervals (e.g., 10,000km or 6 months) as dictated by the manufacturer. It’s designed to ensure every component of your car, from the filters to the safety sensors, is performing exactly as it should.

Staying up to date with your logbook isn't just about the warranty; it’s about protecting your car’s resale value. A car with a complete, stamped service history is worth significantly more when it’s time to trade in.
