Understanding how extended warranties work and how we handle them can save you time, money, and stress. We do our very best to represent you!

What Are Extended Warranties and Why Do They Matter?

Extended warranties are popular service contracts that cover repairs beyond the original manufacturer’s warranty. They often cover parts and labor for specific components or systems in your vehicle. Many car owners purchase extended warranties to avoid unexpected repair costs after the factory warranty expires.

Where can you buy an extended warranty?

These warranties can be purchased from several places - the car dealer, third-party companies, or sometimes they are included with financing plans. The coverage does vary widely, so understanding your warranty terms is crucial.

An example of how an extended warranty works?

Let's say your transmission fails after the factory warranty ends. An extended warranty might cover the repair cost. Without it, you could face thousands of dollars in expenses.
