FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do electric and hybrid cars still need mechanical repairs?
Yes. Even though they have fewer engine parts, they still have suspension, brakes, steering, cooling systems and cabin components that need maintenance.
Can any garage repair an EV or hybrid?
No. EVs require high-voltage training and the correct safety equipment. Always use a garage qualified to work on electric systems.
Do hybrids have more parts to go wrong?
Hybrids have both an engine and an electric motor, so regular servicing is important to keep both systems working smoothly — but failures are not more common when maintained properly.
What should I do if a warning light comes on?
Stop and book a diagnostic check. EV and hybrid warning lights are linked to safety systems, so they shouldn’t be ignored.
