Car Service and Health Check Warranty

[Coach P]

I purchased my 2017 model Lexus IS 300H Advance CVT in April '24.

Took it in for its 110,000 mile interim service and health check at a Lexus dealer. Health check brought up two items needing attention:

1. Air condenser been hit and need a new condenser @ £940.00

2. Recommended a full 4 wheel alignment @ £118.00

Air condenser replacemrnt cost came as a shock ! Is it reasonable? Have put on hold for now but will sort out wheel alignment soon.

Also as service was carried out within the 10,000 mile warranty (108,000 miles at present). Is the health check warranty valid for the Hybrid Battery (7 yrs old)?

Thanks for any advise as I am new to Lexus cars.

The hybrid health check can be done every 10k miles / 12 months (whichever comes first) to keep renewing it until the car is 15 years old woty unlimited mileage in order to warranty the hybrid Battery. The hybrid health check is done as part of a Lexus service or can be purchased standalone (about £60 each time) if the car is serviced outside of the Lexus dealer network.

Or you can get it done properly at the dealership ...

Wheel alignment is a bit of a craft. It makes a big difference who does it and how much they know, even with the same Hunter equipment.
