What happens in an EV service?
Electric vehicles have fewer components than their petrol and diesel counterparts, making them easier to maintain. They are made up of three main components:
- An electric motor
- An on-board charger
- An inverter
However, there are other parts of your vehicle that need servicing regularly to make sure your car is running at its best. With an Electric Vehicle service from PTA, every component of your car is thoroughly checked and maintained both on the floor and on the ramp. Any required repairs are clearly priced and prioritised, with no additional work carried out without your approval - helping you plan ahead and spread the cost of maintenance.
Electric Vehicle Service Checklist
An Electric Vehicle service with PTA ensures that every component of your car is properly checked, and maintained both on the floor and on the ramp. We also guarantee no additional work will take place without your say-so. We will price and prioritise ALL repair work and help you to plan ahead and spread the cost of repairs.
