Plus, with RAC Mobile Mechanics, you can avoid the hassle of taking your vehicle to a garage. They can do full and interim services on your driveway, so you don't even need to leave the house. RAC services are backed by our MOT Fee Guarantee. If you get an MOT within 30 days of your service, and you fail over something we’ve checked, we’ll refund your test fee.

RAC Mobile Mechanics can carry out hybrid service on popular Volvo models such as XC40 Recharge Hybrid, XC60 Recharge, XC90 Recharge, S60 Recharge, and V60 Recharge. This service is completed at your home or workplace, following Volvo maintenance guidance and using OEM‑equivalent parts.

Frequently Asked Questions on hybrid vehicle service

Yes, hybrid cars need a special service. They have both a petrol or diesel engine and an electric motor, so a service must cover both systems. Special equipment and trained mechanics are needed to properly work on these vehicles.

Yes, hybrid cars need a regular service just like petrol and diesel cars. Routine maintenance and checks help ensure that all parts of the car are in good condition. It can also prevent future issues and keep your car running smoothly.

Hybrid cars should be serviced every 12 months or every 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. Regular servicing helps keep your vehicle running smoothly for longer.

Signs your hybrid vehicle needs a service include unusual noises from the engine or motor, decreased fuel efficiency, warning lights on the dashboard, and reduced battery performance. Regular checks can catch these issues early.

Not all garages have the right tools to service hybrid vehicles. It's best to take your hybrid to a garage with mechanics trained to work on hybrid cars and the right tools to handle both the engine and electric motor.

Yes, we can! However, it’s important to note that our mobile mechanic services don’t include a health check or efficiency test on the hybrid battery.

Our RAC Mobile Mechanic full service includes a diagnostic check that picks up most faults. But if you want a battery health check or efficiency test completed, we’d recommend booking a hybrid car service with one of our local approved garages.
