Genesis stands behind their vehicles with the most comprehensive warranty packages in the luxury automotive segment. This coverage provides peace of mind and demonstrates the brand's confidence in their engineering and build quality.

The basic limited warranty covers your new Genesis vehicle for 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. This protection addresses defects in materials or workmanship for virtually every component of your vehicle. From the infotainment system to the power seats, if something fails due to a manufacturing defect, Genesis covers the repair. 

Your powertrain receives even longer protection with a 10-year or 100,000-mile warranty. This coverage includes the engine, transmission, drive axles, and all internally lubricated parts within these systems. Compared to rival luxury vehicles, this lengthy coverage provides exceptional value and security. 

Genesis also includes a comprehensive corrosion warranty that protects against rust-through for 7 years (unlimited mileage). Complimentary roadside assistance comes standard for 3 years (unlimited mileage).  

What Genesis Complimentary Maintenance Covers

A complimentary scheduled maintenance program is a valuable part of the Genesis warranty coverage. For 3 years or 36,000 miles, Genesis covers normal factory-scheduled maintenance at no cost to you. During this same interval, you can enjoy complimentary valet service from Genesis of Chandler. 

This program includes oil and filter changes performed at the intervals specified in your owner's manual. Your Genesis receives the correct oil type and grade for optimal engine performance and longevity. The service also covers tire rotations to ensure even wear and maximize the life of your tires.

 Multi-point inspections accompany each service visit. Our technicians examine fluid levels, belts, hoses, brakes, and other key components to catch potential issues early. These inspections help prevent small problems from becoming major repairs down the road. 

The complimentary maintenance program covers cabin air filter and engine air filter replacement when needed according to the maintenance schedule. In the Chandler area, Arizona's dust and desert conditions can require more frequent filter changes than in other climates, making this coverage particularly valuable. 

All fluids except fuel receive top-offs as needed during your scheduled maintenance visits. This includes coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid. Keeping these fluids at proper levels protects your vehicle's systems and ensures reliable operation. Please give us a call or use this form to schedule a service valet.

Creating Your Genesis Maintenance Schedule

Following a consistent maintenance schedule keeps your Genesis running smoothly and helps maintain its resale value. Understanding the ongoing requirements helps you budget and plan for the life of your vehicle. Oil changes represent the most frequent maintenance task. Depending on your driving habits and conditions, your Genesis needs oil service every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. Severe driving conditions like frequent short trips, stop-and-go traffic, or driving in extreme temperatures can require more frequent changes. 

Tire rotations should occur at the same 5,000-7,500 mile intervals. Regular rotation ensures even tread wear and extends tire life. During these services, our technicians also check tire pressure and inspect for damage or irregular wear patterns that might indicate alignment issues.

 Brake inspections happen during routine service visits, but brake fluid requires replacement every 3 years regardless of mileage. This service removes moisture that accumulates in the brake system over time, maintaining proper braking performance and preventing corrosion in brake components. 

The engine air filter and cabin air filter need attention based on both mileage and visual inspection. In Arizona's dusty environment, these filters often require replacement more frequently than the standard intervals. A clogged cabin filter reduces air conditioning efficiency, while a dirty engine air filter can decrease fuel economy and performance. 

Major service intervals occur at 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 miles. These comprehensive services add additional items like transmission fluid service, coolant system flush, and spark plug replacement. The specific requirements vary by model and engine type, so make sure to consult your owner's manual. Even better, talk to your Genesis of Chandler service advisor. Give us a call at 480-269-6949.

Why Dealer Service Matters for Your Genesis

The Genesis of Chandler service department provides advantages that independent shops simply can't match. Our technicians receive ongoing training directly from Genesis on the latest systems, diagnostic procedures, and repair techniques. 

We use genuine Genesis parts designed specifically for your vehicle. These components meet exact factory specifications and come with warranty protection. Aftermarket parts might cost less initially, but they often don't perform as well or last as long as genuine parts. 

Our service center features specialized diagnostic equipment calibrated for Genesis vehicles. This technology communicates directly with your vehicle's computer systems to identify issues quickly and accurately. Generic scan tools used by independent shops may not access all the data needed for proper diagnosis.

 Maintaining a complete service history with Genesis protects your vehicle's resale value. When you decide to sell or trade your Genesis, documented dealer service records demonstrate that the vehicle received proper care throughout its life. This documentation can significantly impact the price buyers are willing to pay.

 Any warranty repairs must be performed at an authorized Genesis dealer to maintain coverage. Even if you're out of the complimentary maintenance period, having an established relationship with your Genesis dealer ensures seamless handling of any warranty claims that arise.

Keeping Your Warranty Valid

Understanding what might void your Genesis warranty helps you avoid inadvertent mistakes that could leave you paying for repairs that should be covered. The warranty remains valid as long as you follow some basic guidelines. 

Maintain your vehicle according to the schedule outlined in your owner's manual. Missing scheduled maintenance or letting your vehicle operate with worn components can void warranty coverage for related repairs. Keep all service records as proof of proper maintenance.

 Use the correct fuel grade specified for your Genesis model. Most Genesis engines require premium unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher. Using lower-grade fuel can cause engine damage that isn't covered under warranty. 

Avoid modifications that alter engine performance, emissions systems, or safety features. While personalizing your Genesis with accessories is fine, changes that affect how the vehicle operates can void portions of your warranty coverage. If you're considering modifications, check with your Genesis dealership service advisor about potential warranty implications.

 Address warning lights and concerns promptly. Continuing to drive with a check engine light or other warning indicators can cause additional damage that extends beyond the original problem. What might have been a simple repair could become a major expense if neglected.

Seasonal Maintenance Considerations in Arizona

Arizona's unique climate presents specific challenges for vehicle maintenance that differ from other regions. Understanding these local factors helps you keep your Genesis in optimal condition year-round.

 Summer heat places enormous stress on cooling systems, batteries, and air conditioning components. Before temperatures climb, have your cooling system inspected and serviced. 

Check that coolant is at the proper level and concentration, and inspect hoses and belts for signs of deterioration.

 Battery life shortens significantly in extreme heat. Arizona drivers typically need to replace batteries faster than those living in moderate climates. Watch for signs of battery weakness like slow cranking or electrical system issues, especially as your battery approaches 3 years of age. 

Tire pressure fluctuates with temperature changes. Check your tire pressure monthly, as properly inflated tires improve fuel economy, handling, and tire life. Arizona's hot pavement can also accelerate tire wear, making regular rotation even more important. 

Air conditioning systems work overtime during Phoenix-area summers. Have your AC system inspected annually to ensure it's ready for the demanding cooling season. This service includes checking refrigerant levels, inspecting for leaks, and replacing the cabin air filter that works harder in our dusty environment. 

Monsoon season brings dust storms and flash flooding. After driving through heavy dust or standing water, it’s a good idea to have the Genesis of Chandler service department inspect your air filters and undercarriage. Dust can clog filters quickly, while water exposure can affect electrical components and create rust concerns despite our dry climate.

Planning for Post-Warranty Maintenance

Understanding typical maintenance expenses allows you to set aside funds and avoid financial surprises.

 Routine oil changes and tire rotations represent the most frequent expense. These services typically cost between $100 and $200 depending on your specific Genesis model and oil requirements. Performing these services on schedule prevents far more expensive repairs down the road. 

Brake service becomes necessary every 30,000 to 50,000 miles depending on driving habits. Brake pad replacement typically runs from $300 to $600 per axle. Waiting too long to replace worn pads can damage rotors, significantly increasing repair costs.

 Major service intervals at 60,000 and 90,000 miles include more comprehensive maintenance. These services can range from $500 to over $1,000 as multiple systems are addressed simultaneously. Planning for these expenses in advance makes them more manageable. 

Consider an extended warranty or service contract as your factory warranty period ends. These programs can cover unexpected repairs and provide predictable monthly costs instead of surprise expenses. Genesis offers certified pre-owned warranties and various extended coverage options worth exploring.

Protecting Your Investment

Your Genesis represents a significant investment in luxury, performance, and technology. Proper maintenance and understanding your warranty coverage maximizes this investment by ensuring reliable operation and strong resale value. 

Stay proactive about maintenance rather than waiting for problems to develop. Regular service catches small issues before they become major repairs. The money you spend on routine maintenance saves substantially compared to the cost of fixing neglected problems.

 Build a relationship with your service advisor at Genesis of Chandler. A consistent point of contact who knows you and your vehicle provides better service and can offer personalized recommendations based on your driving habits and history.

 At Genesis of Chandler, we can help you maintain detailed records of all maintenance and repair services. We’ll document dates, mileage, and work completed. These records prove invaluable when making warranty claims, selling your vehicle, or diagnosing recurring issues.
