Default Re: Servicing and Coronavirus

I don't think anyone has really answered jackute23's question.

Whilst the service centres may be open, in Vic you are only permitted to leave your house for 4 reasons:
  • Seeking medical services or providing care
  • Essential shopping
  • Exercise
  • To work

You run the risk of being fined if you are caught out of your house for a reason outside of those above. I can't see getting a car serviced is in there.

If, on the other hand, you could combine the dropping of the car off to the place of service whilst you were doing one of the above activities, that would be ok. Or see if the service centre will pick the car up from your place, as others have highlighted some places are doing.

Personally, I wouldn't risk getting fined of up to $1,652 just to get my car serviced.
