Walaubagaimanapun, kenderaan EV bukanlah bebas daripada urus-tadbir. Peneraju industri kenderaan meminta pemilik mengikuti satu siri pemeriksaan dan penggantian rosak dalam tempoh yang ditetapkan untuk memastikan geganti tongkat kewarasan masih sah. Sekiranya anda tidak mengikuti jadual yang disyorkan, kenderaan kadang-kadang tidak dibahagikan jika ia memerlukan kerja membaiki.

In addition to tire rotation, replacing the cabin air filter and wiper blades, and filling up the washer fluid, most of this involves various mechanical checks. Car manufacturers suggest wisely that except for simple tasks such as checking the tires' air pressure, topping up the windshield washer fluid, and possibly replacing the wiper blades, these procedures should be carried out by a trained technician at the car's service centre.

Chevrolet Bolt

As an illustration of usual requirements, refer to the typical maintenance schedule of the 2019 Chevrolet Bolt EV, which includes:

Monthly (performed by owner):

• Please check the tyre pressure and make any necessary adjustments. Also, inspect the tyres for any excessive wear. Finally, ensure the windshield washer fluid level is adequate and top-up if needed.

Every 7,500 miles:

• Perform a tire rotation, and check the coolant levels for various components, including the battery, cabin heater, power inverter, accessory power system, and battery charger modules. Conduct a visual inspection for fluid leaks. Carefully inspect the braking system. Inspect the steering, suspension system, and chassis components for any signs of damage. Check the power steering, half shafts, and driveshaft for excessive wear, leaks, or damage. Examine the airbag restraint system. Lubricate the body components, specifically the door locks. Check the accelerator pedal for any signs of damage, excessive effort, or binding, and replace it if necessary. Do a visual check of the gas struts for signs of wear, cracks, or other damage. If equipped, verify the tire sealant's expiration date, used to temporarily seal and inflate a damaged tyre.

Twice a year:

• Rinse the underside of the vehicle with plain water to remove corrosive substances (such as road salt).

Every 15,000 miles:

• Change the windshield wiper blades.

Every 36,000 miles:

• Ganti fi leri udara kabin (lebih kerap jika perlu).

Every 75,000 miles:

• 
  Replace the hood and/or body lift support gas struts is a tricky task that requires some skill and care, but can be done by following some detailed steps and precautions.
  1. Raise the vehicle and support for safety.
  2. Remove the hood latches, lift the hood, and prop it up with a hood support rod.
  3. Locate the lift support strut, which is usually held in place with screws or clips.
  4. Remove the screws or release the clips to free the strut.
  5. Pull or slide the strut out of its slot and replace it with the new one.

Every five years:

• Air out the car cooling system. Refill the cooling system with the recommended coolant. Change the brake fluid in the vehicle.

Every seven years:

• Please have the desiccant for the air conditioner replaced. This is a moisture-absorbing material that is essential in preventing corrosion in the system.

Nissan Leaf

Nissan has two different maintenance schedules for the Leaf. Schedule 1 applies to harsh operating conditions which include: frequent short trips that are five miles or less in average temperature or 10 miles in freezing ambient, driving in hot weather with frequent stop-and-go via, driving at low speeds for long distances, navigating through dusty conditions or roads covered with rough or muddy surfaces with salt, or carrying a car roof top carrier.

Schedule 2 employs a more relaxed maintenance plan, but it is limited to vehicles primarily used for highway driving in temperate climates. Ultimately, most Leaf owners will need to follow the more rigorous Schedule 1 service.

Just like the Nissan Bolt, its maintenance schedule mainly includes regular checks. The recommended schedule as per the manufacturer is to have the tyres rotated every six months or 7,500km, and the cabin air filter changed every 12 months or 15,000km. Moreover, the brake fluid needs to be replaced every 24 months or 30,000km, and the coolant must be changed after every 15 years or 120,000km.

• Check the condition of the brake fluid every four years and replace it if needed.
• Change Air Conditioner desiccant bags every 4 years.
• Kemas kitaran pembersih udara dalam kereta yang selalu membantu menjaga mulutan dan salurannya berfungsi dengan baik selagi menambah umur penghantarnya kepada 2 tahun.
• Replacement of HEPA filter every 3 years.
• Change oil pads in the brake calipers each year or drive 20,000 km to prevent brake failure if you live in an area where roads are sprinkled with salts during winter season.
• Replace tyres every 10,000 kilometres or if the tread depth difference reaches 1.5 millimetres or more, whichever is sooner.

Vehicles that frequently engage their brakes due to towing, driving down hills, or being driven aggressively, particularly in hot and humid climates, may require more regular checks and replacement of brake fluid for optimal performance.

Furthermore, Tesla attaches these two observations:

• Lubricant for car battery: In most cases, your car's battery coolant does not need to be replaced throughout the lifespan of your vehicle.
• Bahan Pengusaha Keselamatan Penghenti: Jangan isi balik cecair penghaps bukaan rem.

  Since its unveiling in 2015, the Chevrolet Bolt, now rebranded as the Opel Ampera-e in Europe, has been touted as a revolutionary battery electric vehicle (BEV). With its estimated 60 kWh battery pack and MIPS (Michigan Power Train) motor, the car trumpeted a maximum range of 240 miles on a single charge. This projection stood at roughly 20% more to that of Tesla's competing Model S 60D, in its entry level spec, but offered what many sensed could be twinned consideration in terms of safety, through its Motor Traction welfare and what has become known as 'kililanjutan housing and overall deliveroin value'.
  Several car critics, however, saw a disparity in the long term prognosis of the Model 3 by way of battery life.

Battery Pack

When it comes to electric vehicles, their battery packs are extremely costly. This component will naturally lose its ability to hold a full charge over time, but the ageing process is gradual. It's essential to note that this is more characteristic of the older EVs that could barely manage an 80-mile range on a single charge, whereas newer models with more than 300-mile ranges are built with better technology that is less susceptible to rapid degradation. However, ongoing ownership will inevitably lead to a reduction in the vehicle's range, and if the decline becomes significant enough to cause inconvenience, the owner may need to consider replacing the battery pack or exchanging the vehicle for a newer one.

Conclusion

The idea that electric vehicles require little maintenance is a common misconception. In reality, EV owners will still need to replace worn-out tyres, send their car for regular brake servicing, and possibly replace steering and suspension parts, as well as components such as hoses, headlights and taillights over time. It is advisable to check your owner's manual for the specific maintenance requirements of your electric vehicle.
