What is the Honda Care Maintenance Plan?
Keeping up with routine oil changes, tire rotations, and fluid checks is essential for preserving the resale value and long-term health of your vehicle. However, rising labor rates and parts costs can make unpredictable vehicle maintenance stressful.
That is where the Honda Care Maintenance Plan comes in. Designed to keep your vehicle performing at factory standards, this prepaid maintenance program allows Atlanta drivers to lock in routine service costs ahead of time.
At Nalley Honda in Union City, Metro Atlanta drivers can seamlessly combine Honda factory maintenance programs with direct online booking, transparent pricing, and home delivery via Clicklane.
Key Benefits of Prepaid Maintenance
- Protection Against Inflation: Pay for future routine maintenance at today’s rates, protecting your wallet from rising labor and parts prices.
- Factory-Trained Technicians: Every oil change, brake inspection, and fluid service is performed by certified technicians using Genuine Honda OEM parts.
- Maintenance Minder™ Integration: Your plan connects directly with your vehicle’s dashboard Maintenance Minder™ system, notifying you automatically when services are due.
- Transferable Coverage: If you choose to sell your vehicle privately before coverage expires, the plan transfers to the next owner, boosting your car’s resale value.
- Financed Convenience: You can build the cost of your Honda Care plan directly into your monthly financing or lease structure during online checkout.

Honda Service Pass vs. Honda Care Maintenance
If you purchase a new vehicle at Nalley Honda, it is important to know how complimentary coverage works alongside extended maintenance:
| Maintenance Program | What It Covers | Time & Mileage Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Honda Service Pass (Complimentary) | Complimentary A1/B1 services (oil, filter, tire rotations, multi-point inspections) | 2023–2024 Models: 2 Years / 24,000 Miles 2025 Models: 1 Year / 12,000 Miles |
| Honda Care Maintenance (Prepaid Plan) | Extended routine service coverage including filters, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and differential fluid | Customizable terms up to 8 Years / 120,000 Miles |
By pairing initial Honda Service Pass coverage with a long-term Honda Care Maintenance Plan, you can keep your vehicle covered for years without paying out-of-pocket for routine maintenance.
Frequently Asked Questions About Honda Care Maintenance
Can I buy Honda Care Maintenance when purchasing a vehicle online at Nalley?
Yes. When structuring your lease or financing through Nalley’s Clicklane platform, you can select and add the Honda Care Maintenance Plan directly into your penny-perfect monthly payment breakdown.
Is Honda Care Maintenance accepted at all Honda dealerships?
Yes. Honda Care Maintenance is backed directly by American Honda Motor Co., Inc., meaning your plan is honored at participating authorized Honda service centers nationwide, including Nalley Honda in Union City.
What is the difference between Honda Care Maintenance and a Vehicle Service Contract (VSC)?
Honda Care Maintenance strictly covers routine scheduled maintenance (oil changes, filters, fluids, tire rotations). A Honda Care Vehicle Service Contract (VSC) covers unexpected mechanical repairs and component breakdowns (engine, transmission, electronics, electrical systems) after the factory warranty expires.
How do I know when it is time to bring my vehicle in for covered maintenance?
Your Honda vehicle is equipped with a Maintenance Minder™ system on the dashboard. When a code or wrench icon appears (or an alert fires in the HondaLink® app), simply schedule an online appointment at Nalley Honda to have your covered maintenance completed.
