Time for Vehicle Service

Damm…Went over the required service mileage by over 50 Kms for the Prado. Did a check with colleagues if it was okay to go beyond the required service time, and these were the comments I got:

First Guy: “The lady calling from Toyota asked me why I never came for service at 8000 Kms, and said that she would book my appointment next as soon as possible.” (This guys had a Prado which was driven close to 10,000kms when the call was made to him)

Second Guy: Its okay to go beyond the required service kilometers but its SAFER to get it serviced by the NEXT TWO REQUIRED SERVICE KMS!!!

Third Guy = ME: Am going as soon as I can to get it serviced!!! No unwanted risk’s for me and warranty is based on proper service been performed (I thought of all this later of course)

With all this in mind I was wondering how long the service would take, Went on to the Al Sayar Toyota website and found a surprising new feature…an online booking system where we could book the preferred date and time for servicing individual’s vehicle. Went ahead and booked for a 7:30am slot. After the booking it was mentioned that a customer service representative would get back to me. But considering the time right now is 11:30pm and the service date being tomorrow early morning, I figured the call wouldn’t be required. So it’s the bed for me now, got to get up early.
