under the European block exemtion rules..
any dealer can serving and repair cars under makers warranty period, so long as they are qualified and Genuine parts used
taken from their site ....
EC Competition Law (Articles 84 and 85) Enforcement Regulations 2001;
EC Regulation 1400/2002;
Regulation 17 of the 1998 Competition Act
QUESTION .......What effect will the new block exemption have on the car repair and servicing market?
These changes will mean more competition in the servicing and repair market leading to lower costs and higher standards for consumers.
The after-sales market will be opened up, with a change to the rules linking new car sales and servicing. Dealers will still have to ensure that customers' cars are serviced and repaired to manufacturer-approved standards, but they will no longer have to do it themselves; and, independent garages and roadside assistance organisations will have much greater access to technical information, including diagnostic equipment and software.
To be frank the Nissan Main dealer network would be the last place my Zed would go for any repairs / servicing etc.. ..
