Many Glendale drivers also ask how Volkswagen Care relates to VW Carefree Scheduled Maintenance. On Model Year 2020 and newer Volkswagen vehicles, VW Carefree Scheduled Maintenance provides the 10,000- and 20,000-mile scheduled services for two years or 20,000 miles, whichever occurs first, at no additional charge. After that introductory period ends, Volkswagen Care Prepaid Scheduled Maintenance plans can be purchased to continue coverage at subsequent mileage intervals. Our team can help you coordinate a smooth handoff from Carefree Scheduled Maintenance to Volkswagen Care so your routine stays consistent.
For added confidence on the road, eligible Volkswagen vehicles also include 24-Hour Roadside Assistance for 3 years or 36,000 miles (whichever occurs first) on 2016 and newer models, with services such as towing and battery jump starts provided by an authorized third party. While roadside assistance is separate from Volkswagen Care, many owners appreciate how both programs work together to keep driving simple and stress-free around Glendale and the Greater Los Angeles area.
