Servicing and maintenance

Booking your service or MOT

Proper vehicle maintenance is key to safety for you, passengers, and others.

Keeping up a regular service schedule is just one part of that, along with ensuring you keep on top of MOT requirements.

How you book a service or MOT for a vehicle leased from ALD Automotive depends on whether you have a service agreement included within your contract.

With a maintenance package, you can book a service or MOT via our online portal.

Alternatively, you can call Driver Assistance on 08000 32 32 77 to arrange your MOT.

No service and maintenance package?

It is your/your company's responsibility to ensure all servicing and maintenance work is carried out by an authorised dealer. You also need to ensure that a full service history and a valid MOT certificate are kept up to date as it is an offence to drive your vehicle without a valid MOT.

When is my MOT due?

If we are the registered keeper of your vehicle, we’ll send MOT reminders starting three months before the due date. If not, we are unable to send reminders. Registered keepers can sign up for MOT text reminders via GOV.UK.

Missed services

It remains your responsibility to ensure all servicing is carried out on time and by an authorised dealer. Missed services or incomplete service history logs when the vehicle is returned to us, will be liable for any costs incurred (from an invalidated warranty or lower resale value, for example).

Failed MOTs

If your vehicle’s MOT has expired or failed due to dangerous issues, do not drive it until repairs are done and it passes a retest.

If your agreement includes maintenance, we’ll help arrange repairs and the MOT retest, covering costs unless damage, misuse, or neglect caused the issues. The authorised garage will contact us.

Repairs from damage, misuse, neglect, or if you lack maintenance coverage, must be paid by you or your company.

Electric vehicles

Manufacturers' remote software updates for Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) must be carried out when required. You must also ensure the battery is kept at optimal charging levels as recommended by the manufacturer.

There are also a number of other factors to consider to maintain your BEV during the course of your lease.
