What is Car Warranty Cover?
• A wide range of car warranties are available to protect you against the costs of sudden and unforeseen failure of specified components of your car or motor vehicle. A car warranty protects you against unexpected failure. They are not maintenance contracts and do not cover breakdowns that arise through normal wear and tear. The policy should always make these points clear. • The components covered by a warranty vary according to the age and mileage of the vehicle. A range of policies is available from wide protection on new or very young used vehicles to more limited cover for older or higher mileage vehicles. • You may be offered a choice of cover for the vehicle you are buying. Generally, a policy covering a wide range of components will be more expensive than more restricted cover. Cover applies strictly to the failure of specified components only; if the component is not listed for cover in the policy, the repair is not covered. • Policies usually pay for parts and labour charges
