2. Scope of Hino Service Pricing Program

Only Authorised Participating Hino Dealers can perform the Scheduled Services for the Hino Capped Price Service.

Hino Capped Price Servicing provides a capped price for each service specified in the Service Schedule - Hino; it does not prevent individual dealers charging less than the applicable capped price for any particular service.

Servicing conducted under the program must be carried out in accordance with Service Schedule -Hino service interval recommendations.  If any scheduled maintenance service is missed, additional costs may apply when your vehicle is presented for its next scheduled maintenance service in addition to the capped price for that particular service.

3. What is covered under Hino Capped Price Service?

The applicable Hino Capped Price Service will cover the standard items in each Scheduled Service as set out in the Service Schedule - Hino.

The standard items in each Scheduled Service are (subject to condition 5 below and the Service Schedule - Hino):

• labour;
• parts;
• lubricants; and
• sundries which includes items such as oil and waste recycling and or removal, workshop supplies etc.

4. Intermediate servicing.

As some driving conditions place more stress and strain on your vehicle, some maintenance procedures may be required to be performed more regularly than the Scheduled Services. Your participating Authorised Hino Dealer can advise you on the benefits of intermediate servicing in line with your vehicle's operating conditions. Intermediate servicing is not covered under the Hino Service Pricing Program.
