Warranty
The level of complexity of todays vehicles coupled with the high cost of repairs makes the investment in a warranty a wise choice. When you, the customer considers a warranty there are several points to consider:
1. Does the warranty company pay claims directly to the shop?
2. Does the warranty company have sufficient re-insurance in place or are they self insured?
3. Is there a no deductable option available?
4. Will the warranty company provide for a rental car if my car is down?
5. Is this warranty accepted at ASE certified shops?
6. Are there different levels of coverage available that limit my risk?
7. Is the warranty transferrable thus increasing the value of my car when I sell it or trade it in?
