The Big Dealership Misconception
Many drivers believe they must return to their dealership for collision repairs. Dealerships often imply that using an independent workshop will instantly cancel your vehicle’s factory coverage. However, this is a complete myth designed to keep your business within their network. Consequently, hundreds of car owners pay inflated dealership rates unnecessarily.
What the ACCC Says About Your Repair Rights
Under Australian Consumer Law, you hold the legal right to choose your own repair facility. The ACCC clearly states that independent workshops can service and fix new vehicles. Therefore, your new car warranty remains completely intact regardless of your shop choice. You only need to ensure the workshop uses fit-for-purpose components and follows factory guidelines.
