What are the most vital parts of my warranty to know and understand?
There are several components of a warranty, all of which should be read and understood by the person looking to purchase before doing so. It is very important to understand the duration of time a warranty covers repairs for, as well as what components the warranty covers. A typical warranty may be written as “50/52,000” meaning that the coverage of the warranty lasts 50 months from the initial purchase or until the vehicle has driven 52,000 miles. The warranty expires on whichever of these two conditions comes first. You also want to take into consideration what type of work is covered, and the degree to which such work is covered.
