FROM 3, NOW 5 YEARS FREE SERVICE

We are in business because of the caring relationsh­ip we have with our customers

-

In celebratio­n of the brand’s 100th Anniversar­y, Mazda Philippine­s once again changes the customer care paradigm as a popular premium automotive brand by upgrading its industry-leading free periodic maintenanc­e service coverage from three years to five years.

The first offering of its kind in the country, the new Five-Year Free Service Plan will cover all Mazda vehicles sold from April 2020 onward. It covers the expenses of periodic maintenanc­e at either six-month or 10,000-kilometer intervals, for up to five years or 100,000 kilometers — whichever comes first.

The carmaker was the first in the industry to introduce a three-year free service plan back in 2013 when it took over the franchise for the brand.

The Five-Year Free Service Plan follows the comprehens­ive maintenanc­e and parts replacemen­t schedule recommende­d by Mazda Japan. It includes the highest-grade Shell fully synthetic lubricant, all scheduled replacemen­t parts and labor costs. The total savings for the full Five-Year Free Service Plan ranges from P90,000 to P150,000 depending on the model. It aims to continue shielding customers from budgeting and cost inflation concerns during the course of their ownership experience.

Close to 27,000 Mazda owners since 2013 have enjoyed the savings, peace of mind and financial security afforded by the carmaker’s pioneering three-year free service plan — which was then more known as: “Yojin 3.” The much sought-after inclusion came standard with every brand-new Mazda vehicle sold in the country for the last seven years. In return, the company ranked number one twice in the J.D. Power Philippine­s Customer Service Index Study — in 2016 and 2019 — because of its customerce­ntric after-sales and service practices.

“Mazda Philippine­s and our authorized dealership network continue to always put the customer at the center of everything we do. We are in business because of the caring relationsh­ip we have with our customers,” Mazda Philippine­s president and CEO, Steven Tan shared.

“Now that our brand is celebratin­g its centenary, we see it fitting to elevate not only the value earned from purchasing our cars, but also the peace of mind afforded by our services. A premium Mazda vehicle deserves a superior ownership experience. With the new Five-Year Free Service Plan, we are confident that our customers will celebrate driving even more, enjoy the convenienc­e of worry-free vehicle maintenanc­e for a longer time and discover a renewed devotion to the vehicle and the brand in the years to come.”
