Audi Freeway Plan Extension option
All new Audi vehicles are sold with the Audi Freeway Plan (AFP), a comprehensive five-year/100,000km service and maintenance programme designed to afford customers hassle-free motoring and increased value for money during the duration of the contract. Now, Audi owners have the option to extend the AFP to a maximum of 15 years and/or 300,000km (previously 10 years/300,000km), again setting a benchmark in the premium automotive space. This offers those customers who intend to keep their vehicles for a longer period peace of mind as they know their vehicle’s scheduled service and maintenance needs will be taken care of for the duration of the term.
Within the AFP Extension programme, Audi customers can tailor their extensions to their specific needs. The various plans can be calculated on time or mileage, with both service as well as full maintenance options. What’s more, AFP can be extended, with no waiting period, at any time before the existing AFP expires. Should a customer wish to purchase an AFP Extension when buying a new vehicle, the additional cost can be included in the financing structure through Audi Financial Services.
“It’s no secret that, the older vehicles become, the more maintenance they require. This can increase ownership costs, which could put consumers under additional financial pressure. With the Audi Freeway Plan Extension, those customers who choose to keep their vehicles for longer now have the option of buying themselves considerable peace of mind by not having to worry about the costs of servicing and maintaining their vehicles,” says Sascha Sauer, Head of Audi South Africa.
“Additionally, should they wish to sell their vehicle while the AFP Extension is still valid, they can feel confident their vehicle will be more appealing to buyers looking for maximum value and convenience,” Sauer concludes.
Briefly, the benefits of the AFP Extension include:
- Immediate coverage, with no waiting period.
- Covers all services as per the vehicle’s service schedule – there are no hidden costs.
- Protection from inflationary increases on Audi Genuine Parts.
- No limits in terms of claims values.
The AFP Extension covers services, wear-and-tear items and certain repairs after a specialised Audi Dealer assessment. It also warrants against potential defective workmanship, replacement and repair of defective parts on condition that the AFP policy and terms and conditions have not been invalidated. In addition, the AFP includes Audi Assist, which is Audi’s roadside assistance programme that provides emergency support.
Value convenience with Audi Value Service
Should your vehicle’s Audi Freeway Plan have expired, Audi South Africa also offers a Value Service option, an innovative and cost-effective service package. Audi Value Service covers vehicles from six to 13 years old, with a mileage below 270,000km.
The Audi Value Service option is a short-term contract which covers two oil change services across two years/30,000km. Additionally, the agreement includes comprehensive roadside assistance, and the guarantee that only Audi Genuine Parts are used. Audi Value Service Deals start from just R6,079 and, like the AFP Extension, can be activated through any Audi Dealer.
