To support customers who observe the prescribed periodic maintenance services at its authorized dealerships and service centers, Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) has announced its Vehicle Certification Program.
Through this program, Honda vehicles are certified based on compliance to standard periodic maintenance as prescribed by Honda. This certification ensures that the vehicle has followed the timely replacement of all parts and lubricants keeping the vehicle in excellent condition. It will come particularly handy for those looking to buy or sell pre-loved Hondas, as it assures that the used vehicle has gone through proper care and maintenance, and is therefore worthy of a higher resale value.
Eligible vehicles may be certified based on two (2) categories of certificates, depending on the vehicle’s warranty condition.
- Customers with vehicles within the warranty period must complete the required six (6) Periodic Maintenance Service (PMS) visits from the purchase date.
- Customers with vehicles that are beyond three (3) years from the purchase date must complete four (4) consecutive standard PMS visits after the warranty period.
Should the vehicles reach 10,000 kms ahead of the prescribed 6-month PMS interval period, the standard PMS schedule considering period shall be observed (6-months or 10,000 kms; whichever comes first). Checking and replacement of Parts and Lubricants must be aligned with Honda’s Standard PMS Schedule. Usage of non-genuine Honda parts or any vehicle modifications is subject to disqualification to Honda Certification Program.
Customers with eligible vehicles may obtain their certificates free of charge from the Servicing Dealership. Certificates for vehicles within warranty will be issued upon the last maintenance visit of customers upon confirmation that they have qualified for the program. On the other hand, certificates for out-of-warranty vehicles will be issued upon request. The validity of certificates shall be annotated on the certificate for both types which has an effectivity of six (6) months from the last maintenance visit.
