Car Warranty - The Basics

A car warranty policy is like any other warranty policy you may have, just for your car! It covers the car against breakdowns and makes sure that the owner isn't going to suffer large repair bills.

A warranty policy covers a car against any of the parts mentioned in the policy. This will usually include most mechanical and electrical parts and will also cover the labour cost for the repair being made, either by an independent or a main dealer garage. This means you can take the vehicle to garages you trust to make the repairs to your car.

Car Warranty is also referred to as:

Extended Warranty
Vehicle Warranty
Motor Warranty

A car warranty acts as an extra insurance policy that protects the holder against the cost of repairing a vehicle when it breaks down. Although it is like an insurance policy, you don't have to buy car warranty cover by law (unlike vehicle insurance). This makes the choice of having a warranty policy in place the owner's choice. Many people seem to now be taking the approach that it is easier to have a warranty in place rather than having to spend out on a vehicle when it breaks down as this is often easier to budget for. The warranty also covers the car against the possibility of much higher repair costs than the actual cost of the policy, technically saving the owner money when the vehicle does breakdown.

A couple of examples show the following:

If a turbo on a car breaks it would cost around £1000 to repair, the warranty cover that would repair this for free would be between about £150 - £400.

** Saving up to £600 and £850!! **

Another example is a gearbox. If you are unfortunate enough for this to break then it will on average cost around £1300, the warranty policy would still be about £150 - £400 depending on the vehicle.

** Saving between £900 and £1150! **

Both of these examples show just how much a car warranty policy can save an owner if they suffer a breakdown of their vehicle.
