Used Car Information: Extended
Warranty
When looking for your next vehicle,
buying a used car is a great way to get a good value
and save. Yet, there is more risk involved in the
process. Buying an extended warranty is sometimes
presented as an option. It will add on to the price
but it may earn you savings – and a peace of mind.
It is always best to find a used car
that is less then three years old; this means it
will likely be under the manufacturers original
warranty. Yet in as little as a year this may run
out on a used car, and the transmission and other
drive-train component coverage may not be
transferable to your used car. An extension is the
only option to have repairs fixed without having to
pay. How do you know if you need an extended
contract? It depends how comfortable you are with
the vehicle; did you do your research on it? Is it
more expensive to repair than others? The future of
a used car is unknown, but try to determine what you
might encounter down the road when deciding on the
coverage. There are also different varieties of used
car extended warranties. Some cover only major
repair, such as a new transmission, while some also
cover minor problems. One of the best ways to
compare different programs is on-line. You can
compare the coverage of the used car and can get
no-obligation quotes.
If you do get an extended warranty
for your used car, know the contract well. Some
contracts require that you schedule for a vehicle
inspection before the policy goes into effect, and
others have a time/mileage waiting period on the
used car. Confirm how the plan pays for repairs and
how the deductible is applied.
Also, find out if the deductible applied for each
trip to the shop or is it applied to every repair.
Will the policy cover diagnostic time, roadside
assistance, rental car charges and towing on the
used car? Read the actual contract in full. Keep an
eye on the fine lines, and review the "exclusions"
or "what is not covered" section.
