Understand Your Warranty Concerning Car Repair - What Does it Cover?

Car warranties are as different as the type of cars they are meant to cover. So it is important to understand what the warranty covers and what it does not. Too often, car owners neglect reading their warranties until they find themselves needing it. When this happens, many car owners find that the warranty has expired or does not cover the system or part in need of repair.

It is not surprising that car owners are guilty of doing this. Warranties can be confusing, especially car warranties which intimidates owners who would rather wait and see if they need it rather then being proactive.

That car warranty is very important and by understanding what is covered and what is not owners can save themselves some time and money. The car warranty is in place to cover any auto repair that may happen within a set amount of time.

Usually the length of the warranty will be expressed like this:

5 years/ 60,000 miles (96,560 km)

What this means, is that the warranty is effective for either 5 years or 60,000 miles (96,560 km) whichever comes first. The warranty is invalid when either of these stipulations is met. It is important to know how long your warranty is effective for. While still under the warranty you will be eligible for whatever benefits are cited in the agreement.

The benefits of the warranty depend on the warranty itself and the type of vehicle you have. The benefits are normally promise of repair for certain items and systems. A warranty, whether it is for a car, piece of electronic, or other item promises that the company will repair, replace, or compensate the buyer in some way, shape, or form. Car warranties will generally last from 1 to 3 years and with the aid of an extended warranty up to 12 years or longer.

Car warranties are not normally found on used cars that are purchased from a private owner to a seller. Used cars in this situation are sold "As Is" unless otherwise stated.

New cars, however, or used cars sold on dealer's lots that are still under the initial warranty, are subject to the agreement.

One of the most basic types of car warranties is the Bumper to Bumper Warranty. The Bumper to Bumper Warranty does not actually cover everything in the car but it is a standard warranty that covers most systems and parts.

Items that are not covered by the Bumper to Bumper Warranty will be covered by other agreements. The Wear and Tear Warranty includes many items that are not found on the standard warranty. The Wear and Tear Warranty primarily covers items that will need repair after a length of time. An example of this can be with power windows. The motor will wear out and need replacing which is covered by the warranty.

Now for those owners who want to make sure that every auto repair is covered then an extended warranty will be in order. The extended warranty will cover many additional items, parts, and systems for a longer period of time.

It is important to read over your warranty agreement before you take it into a repair shop. Warranties will cover different items so it would be best to find out what your warranty will and will not cover before you find yourself in need.
