Volvo Car UK launches free puncture service for every Volvo driver

Volvo Car UK is offering a free repair service covering both windscreen and tyre damage. Volvo reports that the service is the first of its kind in the UK car industry to cover both tyres and windscreens. Where “viable”, Volvo retailers will the service on Volvo cars “of any age” and work will be carried out by “qualified Volvo technicians”.

Here’s how the process works. Owners can take their car to any UK Volvo retailer where the damage will be checked to determine whether a repair is possible. In most instances, a repair can be made on the spot, while the customer waits, with no charge. If the damage is not repairable, the retailer will advise the customer and, if they wish, arrange for a new tyre or windscreen to be fitted.

Kristian Elvefors, Volvo Car UK managing director, said: “As well as reducing the nuisance factor of minor damage, this new service helps keep cars in safe condition and, in the case of windscreens, can prevent chips leading to cracks and more costly replacements. We value all Volvo drivers, no matter how old their car might be, and this new service is the perfect way to help them stay safe, secure and mobile.”
