As per VW Malaysia’s recent announcement, all its dealerships and service centres will remain open. However, strict safety protocols will be in place ensuring the maximum safety of the customers.
For instance, the vehicles and the premises will be sanitised regularly, MySejahtera app temperature checks and check-ins, and proper safety screening.
Apart from this, VW Malaysia has also introduced several initiatives that’ll ensure proper service and maximum safety for its customers. Like the 24 hours open Volkswagen eShowroom that provides stay at home buyers exclusive saving options over and above the current Chinese New Year rebates. Dealerships are also providing free home delivery services to customers within 20km radius.
For existing VW customers who wish to get their vehicle serviced, is the ‘Safe Hands’ initiative that works under strict safety guidelines. Part of this initiative is contactless vehicle acceptance, sanitisation before & after service, video walkthroughs, cashless payment, and contactless car pickup. Interested owners can book service appointments via VW Malaysia official website.
VW Malaysia’s Roadside Assistance service will also remain operational. In the event of an emergency, drivers can contact the service centre via the toll-free number 1800-88-2389.
