MINI MAINTENANCE PROGRAM EXPLAINED
Maintenance Programs are a benefit designed to help reduce the cost of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance.
MINI passenger cars purchased from any Authorized MINI Dealer in the United States are covered by Full Maintenance for 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Coverage begins on the date of first retail sale or the date the vehicle is first placed in service as a demonstrator or company vehicle, whichever is earlier.
Any authorized MINI Dealer in the United States will perform the scheduled or additional maintenance services on your vehicle at no expense to you. The maintenance schedule intervals are based on normal driving conditions and operation. Should you request more frequent maintenance service; the cost of these services will not be covered by the Maintenance Program.
Coverage
Full Maintenance covers all factory recommended maintenance, as determined by the service interval indicator. Additional items that need replacement due to normal wear and tear, and that are not covered by the original MINI New Passenger Car Limited Warranty – such as brake pads, brake rotors, and wiper blades – are included, provided wear and tear exceeds MINI specifications.
