Your Responsibilities as a Tusker Driver

While Tusker handles as much as we can when it comes to running your car, it’s still important to keep your vehicle in good condition and ensure that its servicing and maintenance are up to date. Although the cost of servicing is covered, you’ll need to book your car into a garage as often as the manufacturer recommends. Regular maintenance is crucial, even for electric vehicles (EVs), to ensure they remain in optimal condition.

Key Maintenance Tips for Electric Vehicles

• Tyre Pressure and Tread: Just like with any vehicle, maintaining proper tyre pressure and tread is essential for safety and efficiency.
• Battery Health: Monitor the health and range of your EV’s battery. Most EVs come equipped with built-in tools to help you track this.
• Charging Port and Cable: Regularly inspect the charging port and cable for any damage or wear, as a faulty charging port can disrupt your charging routine.

Key Maintenance Tips for petrol and diesel vehicles

For those driving petrol or diesel vehicles, it’s important to regularly check the oil, coolant, and AdBlue (for diesel cars) levels to prevent any damage. While the costs of these top-ups between services are not covered by the servicing package, the overall maintenance of your vehicle is.
