Maintaining the new car, inspecting it, and the company warranty

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A new car requires periodic maintenance for a period of three years. Is it sufficient for the owner to inspect it every day, or is it sufficient to rely on the period specified by the agency without exceeding it, so that the blood money is dropped from the driver because he relied on the company's inspection?

Answer:
The car may suffer damage. It may be hit by a nail, or something may strike it and break a part of it. He must inspect it, even if the company does not guarantee negligence or carelessness. The company only guarantees against defects that occur without negligence or carelessness. So the company covers the cost. But if the defect that affected the car was caused by a person, the company does not cover it. The person who caused it is the one who is liable. Yes.
