Warranties cover the cost of repairs resulting from standard wear, while insurance protects against accidents, theft and any damage you cause to other vehicles or property while driving. They\u2019re also legally required, whereas aftermarket car warranties are entirely optional. Car warranties don\u2019t cover known issues, such as design defects. However, once a design defect is identified, usually the manufacturer will issue a recall and fix the problem.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"map-section\" class=\"wp-block-group

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Coverage Benefits and Add-On Options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of the company&#8217;s protection plans come with Endurance Elite membership, which includes 24-hour roadside assistance and tire repair\/replacement. In addition, customers have access to merchant discounts, ID theft protection tools, key fob replacement, repair finance options up to $5,000 and a personal assistant for reservations, directions and emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Endurance has one of the best trip interruption policies in the business, offering $150 reimbursement per day for a maximum of three days. The average warranty usually only covers $50 per day up to $150. However, Endurance\u2019s rental benefits are on the lower side, only reimbursing a maximum of $150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Endurance\u2019s contracts are a bit hit or miss. On the positive side, it doesn&#8217;t have a \u201cbetterment clause,\u201d which is a common element in contracts that refers to parts that, if added, would improve the condition of your car while increasing its value. This means that if a repair is needed, the warranty will allow a better part to replace a cheaper one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, it does have a consequential loss clause, meaning the warranty won\u2019t cover parts that are damaged by other uninsured parts. For instance, if an uninsured battery, say, leaks acid onto an insured part, the warranty will not cover the repair. This limitation can be critical for customers, as their coverage can be nullified without their knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Endurance also offers various add-on options for its plans. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sds-list sds-list--unordered wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Commercial Use.<\/strong> This option is available for commercial vehicles, including ride-hailing, like Ubers.<\/li><li><strong>High-Tech.<\/strong> This add-on plan covers devices like video systems, display screens, GPS and navigation systems, blind spot detectors and anti-theft systems.<\/li><li><strong>Tire Modification\/Body Suspension Lift.<\/strong> This provides coverage for vehicles with oversized\/undersized tires, body lifts or suspension lifts.<\/li><li><strong>Hybrid Vehicles.<\/strong> This option covers parts commonly found in hybrid and electric vehicles, including motors, power controllers, generators and inverter assemblies.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reputation, Customer Service and Financial Strength<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Endurance offers 24\/7 claims processing and extensive options for choosing a mechanic. Almost every dealership and 350,000 certified mechanics in the U.S. and Canada accept its warranties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, Endurance is one of only nine warranty companies in the U.S. to have a gold-level certification with the Vehicle Protection Association. The VPA sets standards for the car warranty industry, ensuring that members meet or exceed federal or state regulations. It is also named the top-rated car warranty company by ConsumersAdvocate.org and multiple other review websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company has also been the recipient of many other awards, including gold, silver and bronze <a href=\"https:\/\/stevieawards.com\/\">Stevie Awards<\/a> for great employers, customer service department of the year, company of the year and a Golden Bridge Award for best website of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most importantly, the company is backed financially by the Wesco Insurance Co., which holds a solid A- (excellent) score from the financial rating site AM Best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Drawbacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Endurance\u2019s services aren\u2019t available in California, one of the largest car markets in the country. Also, even though Endurance is a direct provider of car warranties, not all of its plans are administered directly by the company. It doesn&#8217;t mention which plans are administered by other providers, so we had to call to find out.

For example, a typical rental car reimbursement for extended car insurance stands around $50 per day for up to a maximum of three days while Concord offers $75 per day for up to four days. The company\u2019s towing reimbursement is also high for the industry at $120.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Drawbacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, Concord Auto Protect has a number of drawbacks that need to be addressed. First, it backs its own extended warranty plans, meaning there is no insurance company protecting your investment in the event Concord goes out of business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Second, the company\u2019s online service contract doesn\u2019t mention optional coverage. This means no protection for commercial vehicles or onboard tech like GPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, like other companies on this list, Concord\u2019s contract has a consequential loss clause, limiting claim options in the event that an insured part is damaged by an uninsured one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u00bb<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/u69f46953851\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Drive With Confidence With Concord<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Carchex\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-for-warranty-plan-options-carchex\"><strong>Best for Warranty Plan Options:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/u22601e16a15\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Carchex<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With five different plan tiers to choose from, each offering several coverage options, Carchex provides the widest range of coverage of all the companies we reviewed with 21 total plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carchex\u2019s Silver plan works like a powertrain warranty, while its Titanium plan is comparable to a bumper-to-bumper warranty. Carchex&#8217;s Gold tier can be a suitable option for cars with mileage in the 60,000-plus range. Older vehicles are typically covered up to 100,000 miles, but exceptions can be made up to 125,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table insurance__carchex-table insurance__carchex-titanium-table insurance__table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>Provider<\/th><th>Program Name<\/th><th>Longest Term Available<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>American Auto Shield<\/td><td>Diamond<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Care by AAS<\/td><td>Titanium Plus<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Care by Royal<\/td><td>Titanium<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Royal Administration Services<\/td><td>Ultimate<\/td><td>10 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Allegiance<\/td><td>Ultimate<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Connect<\/td><td>Comprehensive<\/td><td>Monthly<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table insurance__carchex-table insurance__carchex-platinum-table insurance__table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>Provider<\/th><th>Program Name<\/th><th>Longest Term Available<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>American Auto Shield<\/td><td>Platinum<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Care by Royal<\/td><td>Platinum<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Royal Administration Services<\/td><td>Premium<\/td><td>10 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Allegiance<\/td><td>Platinum<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Connect<\/td><td>Preferred<\/td><td>Monthly<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table insurance__carchex-table insurance__carchex-gold-table insurance__table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>Provider<\/th><th>Program Name<\/th><th>Longest Term Available<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>American Auto Shield<\/td><td>Deluxe<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Care by Royal<\/td><td>Gold<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Royal Administration Services<\/td><td>Preferred<\/td><td>10 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Allegiance<\/td><td>Gold<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Connect<\/td><td>Standard<\/td><td>Monthly<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table insurance__carchex-table insurance__carchex-silver-table insurance__table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>Provider<\/th><th>Program Name<\/th><th>Longest Term Available<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>American Auto Shield<\/td><td>Powertrain Plus<\/td><td>6 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Care by Royal<\/td><td>Silver<\/td><td>7 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Royal Administration Services<\/td><td>Centennial<\/td><td>6 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Allegiance<\/td><td>Silver<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Allegiance<\/td><td>Select Elite<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Connect<\/td><td>Powertrain Plus<\/td><td>Monthly<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table insurance__carchex-table insurance__carchex-bronze-table insurance__table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>Provider<\/th><th>Program Name<\/th><th>Longest Term Available<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>American Auto Shield<\/td><td>Bronze<\/td><td>6 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Care by Royal<\/td><td>Bronze<\/td><td>5 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CARCHEX Connect<\/td><td>Powertrain<\/td><td>Monthly<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s important to note that Carchex is a broker rather than a direct provider. This means that its warranties are guaranteed and administered by three different companies: American Auto Shield, Allegiance and Royal Administration Services Inc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only some plans are actually managed by Carchex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Optional Coverage and Additional Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Optional AAS coverage includes a labor rate ceiling of $100 per hour for repair facilities, as well as the ability to switch to that facility\u2019s rate if it\u2019s lower. Most warranties charge a flat $100 or more per hour even if the mechanic typically charges less. Royal, on the other hand, does not offer this benefit. The Titanium plan offers the widest variety of optional coverages, though these vary by provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep in mind that benefit limits under each plan can vary depending on which provider you choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, Royal has a reimbursement limit for car rentals and other expenses while your car is being repaired of $40 per workday and a per breakdown maximum of $320 (eight days), while AAS allows a per workday reimbursement of $40 and a per breakdown maximum of $160; Allegiance tops out at $30 per day with a maximum of $150 (five days).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for roadside assistance, Royal offers a breakdown limit of $320 while AAS sets its at $400. Allegiance has a maximum of $100 per occurrence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reputation and Financial Backing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carchex is the recommended partner of consumer protection companies such as Carfax and CarBuyingTips.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since all of Carchex\u2019s contracts are provided by AAS, Allegiance and Royal, all of their car warranties are financially secure. Contracts by these companies are backed by American Bankers Insurance Co. of Florida, which scores an A (excellent) rating from AM Best and an A3 (stable) from Moody\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Drawbacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the company is a broker, not all queries are directly handled in-house. For the same reason, you\u2019ll have to pay close attention to each contract&#8217;s limitations and exclusions. For example, Royal\u2019s contracts have a consequential loss clause, and all of AAS\u2019 contracts have both consequential and betterment clauses. This means a higher likelihood of you paying more in out-of-pocket costs for breakdowns than you would with another warranty provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Annoyingly, if you get a quote from Carchex, you&#8217;re agreeing to be contacted by the company or its partners by phone, text message and email. Although it\u2019s common for companies to have a disclaimer stating that it can contact you once you submit a quote online, it\u2019s usually that company that contacts you, not its partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u00bb<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/u22601e16a15\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Protect Yourself With a Carchex Extended Auto Warranty<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Protect-My-Car\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-for-complete-vehicle-coverage-on-all-plans-protectmycar-com\"><strong>Best for Complete Vehicle Coverage on All Plans:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/dd738d8a9bd7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ProtectMyCar.com<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Protect My Car is a direct provider of both warranty plans and maintenance plans.

It offers three separate warranty plan groups, each with its own set of plan levels, benefits and pricing. Complete Car Warranty offers some plans with no deductibles, although those tend to be the least comprehensive plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should also be aware that each plan group is administered by a different entity, as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sds-list sds-list--unordered wp-block-list\"><li><strong>CarGuard plans:<\/strong> Administered by Central Administrative Service Corp. of Florida Inc., based in Tampa, Fla.<\/li><li><strong>Matrix plans:<\/strong> Administered by Matrix Financial Services LLC of Dallas<\/li><li><strong>Royal plans:<\/strong> Administered by Royal Administration Services Inc. of Hanover, Mass.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Coverage Benefits and Add-On Options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Complete Car Warranty offers three plan groups, and though the coverage options are similar between all three, specific details will vary. For example, you can expect to have a different deductible based on the plan level you select within each group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The three plans are described below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CarGuard<\/strong> offers five plan levels: Platinum, Gold, Powertrain Plus, Powertrain and Powertrain Enhanced. Of the five, Platinum is the most comprehensive, providing coverage for major components as well as for steering, air conditioning, suspension, fuel system, cooling system, and seals and gaskets. All five plans come with 24\/7 roadside assistance, towing, trip cancellation and car rental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Matrix<\/strong> also offers five plan levels: Enhanced, The Answer, Name Stated, Powertrain Enhanced and Powertrain Plus. Of the five, Enhanced is the most comprehensive. All five plans also cover hybrid car components. Each plan also comes with towing, 24\/7roadside assistance and trip interruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Royal<\/strong> offers four plan levels: Ultimate, Premium, Preferred and Primary. Ultimate and Premium provide the most comprehensive coverage, but all plan levels include 24\/7 roadside assistance, towing, trip interruption and car rental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reputation, Customer Service and Financial Strength<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Complete Car Warranty has a rating of B with the Better Business Bureau, on a scale of A+ to F. There is no indication of an insurance company backing the warranties offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Drawbacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike other car warranty providers that allow you to complete the application process online, Complete Car Warranty uses the online application as a point of entry only. Once you complete it, you\u2019ll be called by a warranty specialist who will discuss the options with you. This holds the potential for the specialist to be a salesperson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll need to evaluate if that party is legitimately concerned that you get the right plan or simply trying to sell you a higher priced plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also be aware that while you will be obtaining your plan through Complete Car Warranty, each plan you select will be administered by a third party. That means Complete Car Warranty functions as an online marketplace for a very limited number of warranty providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u00bb<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/r9ab21e0c01b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Avoid Costly Unexpected Vehicle Repairs Today<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Autopom\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-for-quote-process-autopom\"><strong>Best for Quote Process:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/u235d75d4263\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Autopom!<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The car warranty industry is notorious for making customers call directly for full, detailed quotes. Autopom! is the exception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We requested three online quotes from Autopom!, and it answered in less than a minute, providing detailed quotes that broke down plan type, total cost, deductibles and even possible payment plans. Additionally, Autopom! sent its quotes before calling us, making answering the call optional rather than necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also wondered if Autopom! would pester customers with follow-up calls if they refused to answer their phone call, but Autopom! surprised us again with only two calls after three days. Instead, the representative politely apologized for calling and gave their full information in case we wanted to contact them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, the customer experience with Autopom! was the most enjoyable of the companies on our list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Plan Flexibility<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a broker, Autopom! partners with four car warranty providers \u2014 Integrity Admin Group, EGV Cos. (Omega plans), Royal and Mercury General \u2014 to offer four different plans. With one or two plan options offered by each provider, there\u2019s ample flexibility for customers, including a choice of mileage cap and a maximum term of three, five, seven or eight years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The four plan options also offer flexibility in terms of what\u2019s covered. For example, the first plan, Powertrain Plus, offers traditional powertrain coverage but also includes the option of covering the electrical, air conditioning and fuel systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mechanical Breakdown Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consumers living in California can also purchase mechanical breakdown insurance from Autopom!, which is like an <a href=\"https:\/\/app.salesforceiq.com\/r?target=61e9a000319e5806eaa88fd3&amp;t=AFwhZf28dD9ipNnKpiQwmptbwQAjbWlxxtrNjWZkTXYSsA8-sNgrEqxPuAZPlERycZhSJQBLmRhaChF6rt3PGIW1G_fQpzqPUQybDHbg5CzcFb7zN0MmK68SIC22DVJl72u99VaG77dO&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.auto.com%2Fadvice%2Fbest-extended-car-warranty\">extended car warranty<\/a> that only covers parts or mechanical breakdowns, rather than accidents, etc. The company has MBI plans available for each tier of coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Financial Stability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of the companies partnered with Autopom! are financially stable. Omega plans are backed by Lyndon Southern Insurance Co., which has an A- (excellent) score on AM Best through its parent company, Fortegra Financial Corp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Royal is backed by American Bankers Insurance Co. of Florida, which has an A (excellent) score from AM Best and an A3 (stable) from Moody\u2019s. Mercury General also has an A (excellent) score from AM Best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Drawbacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two drawbacks to working with Autopom! First, since the company is a broker, coverages, exclusions and limitations will depend on the provider you choose. This isn\u2019t necessarily a problem, but not all plans are available in every state and some are state specific, so you\u2019ll have to contact the company directly by phone or email or request an online quote to see if the plan you&#8217;re interested in is available in your area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, all of Autopom!\u2019s contracts have consequential loss clauses and one of the companies, UCC, has both consequential and betterment clauses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u00bb<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/pr\/u235d75d4263\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get a Free Quote From Autopom<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"widget\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"ca-widget\" data-token=\"u836e7c530f4\"><\/div>\n<script async=\"\" defer=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/embeds\/embedder.js?v=1\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"How-We-Chose\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"sds-heading--2 wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-we-determined-our-top-picks\">How We Determined Our Top Picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To determine which car warranty providers were the best in the business, we looked at three criteria: plans, claims and reputation. Because warranty prices vary greatly depending on the make, age and mileage of each vehicle, we decided price wasn\u2019t a great indicator of a company\u2019s overall value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to rank these criteria, we created three personas from Texas (the second most populous state) and requested three quotes from each company using the following parameters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the first two quotes, we used one of the most popular cars in the nation: a Honda Civic. We gathered information for model years 2000 and 2018 to see how big the price difference would be for a new vehicle versus an older one of the same make and model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the third quote, we used a 2018 Fiat 500L to see if prices would change for a less reliable make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From this, we determined firsthand how each company evaluates new and old vehicles, which companies are courteous and which are pushy when selling their plans over the phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, we looked at sample contracts when available on company websites to see what each plan offered. Companies that offer sample contracts give customers a chance to choose the best coverage option for their situation and to understand its limitations and exclusions. This transparency also sends a trust signal to consumers, who are reassured that the company has nothing to hide and is working with their best interest in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s important to remember that your specific coverage, limits and terms will vary depending on the year, make, mode, and mileage of your car. That means you should look at sample contracts as an example of what a company typically covers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Obviously people buy car warranties as a hedge against repair costs, so how a company handles claims and repairs is extremely important. We came up with a step-by-step method for investigating how well companies handled this important service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"sds-list sds-list--ordered wp-block-list\"><li>We verified whether claims are handled in-house or externally. Companies that process claims in-house tend to have better control over the quality of their claims handling and can enhance the customer experience.<\/li><li>We looked for companies that allow customers to choose a certified repair shop on their own without network restrictions.<\/li><li>We chose companies that charge fair prices and allow their customers to choose a deductible that meets their budgets.<\/li><li>In an industry with a history of shady dealings and rip-off contracts, we looked at each company\u2019s reputation and customer feedback.<\/li><li>We also looked for certifications that could serve as indicators of the company&#8217;s customer service standards \u2014 Vehicle Protection Association and the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence certification, for example.<\/li><li>Finally, we looked at financial backing. We checked whether the companies on our list had financial backing from larger insurers. Such backing guarantees the enforcement of a service agreement for its entire duration.<\/li><\/ol>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Choosing-the-Right-Care-Warranty\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"sds-heading--2 wp-block-heading\" id=\"choosing-the-right-car-warranty\">Choosing the Right Car Warranty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Car warranties can be purchased for cars that were bought new as well as used. They also can be bought at any time before or after the expiration of the manufacturer\u2019s warranty. This means that you can opt for continuity of service by buying before the manufacturer\u2019s warranty expires or wait as long as you like to begin coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These extended warranties are not necessarily for everyone. If, for example, you plan on owning your new car for only five or six years, an extended warranty may be unnecessary as the manufacturer\u2019s warranty will likely still be in place throughout that term. Or if you own an older car nearing the end of its life, a warranty probably isn\u2019t worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A good alternative in these cases \u2014 as well as for those who simply don\u2019t want the added expense of a warranty \u2014 would be to save a certain amount of money each month in a savings account earmarked specifically for repairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who decide that a car warranty is right for them, there are a few options, terms and strategies you should familiarize yourself with before deciding on coverage.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Shop-Around\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"you-better-shop-around\">You Better Shop Around<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many dealerships sell extended warranties as a voluntary extra when purchasing a new or certified used car. While this is certainly an option, you probably won\u2019t have had the opportunity to do any comparison shopping before signing on the dotted line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We found that, without exception, car warranty providers allow customers to bargain for a price below their original quote. Do not accept the first price quoted to you and be prepared to play a little bit of hard ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should also prepare yourself for up to a month of follow-up calls from these companies. The car warranty industry, frankly, has a well-earned reputation for being rife with sharks and scammers; for expensive, useless plans; and for irritating salespeople. Few companies offer online quotes, specifically so they can give you the hard sell over the phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pressure tactics like speed talking and threats of \u201climited time offers expiring in the next \u2026 let me look at my watch here \u2026 TWO MINUTES!\u201d are common. These guys do not give up easily \u2014 once they have you on the phone, they\u2019re going to push hard for a sale right then and there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Relax. Ignore the noise. Ask questions, stand your ground, get the information you need and promise nothing. You don\u2019t owe the salesperson anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s always a good idea to get quotes from at least three warranty companies both to compare coverage specifics from each company and play them off each other in a bidding war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If one company is offering the same service for a lower price, tell the other companies and they will almost certainly pull the old \u201clet me talk to my manager and see what we can do for you\u201d schtick before offering you a price sometimes a few hundred dollars below the original quote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, be on the lookout for phone scams from people posing as representatives of your car\u2019s manufacturer or car warranty company telling you that your warranty is about to expire. During these calls, you will be asked to provide personal information like your credit card and Social Security numbers, which is always a red flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Never give personal info over the phone to anyone who called you. Instead, check for yourself to see if your warranty is about to expire, and contact your provider directly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"widget-2\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"ca-widget\" data-token=\"u836e7c530f4\"><\/div>\n<script async=\"\" defer=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consumersadvocate.org\/embeds\/embedder.js?v=1\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Plans\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"plans\">Plans<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Car warranty plans vary in their specifics according to provider and a number of other factors, including age, mileage and make of the vehicle, but all plans fall into one of three categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sds-list sds-list--unordered wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Powertrain warranty:<\/strong> These provide the least protection, covering only the main components that generate power in a vehicle, such as the engine, transmission and drive axle assembly.<\/li><li><strong>Inclusionary warranty:<\/strong> Also known as a \u201cnamed parts warranty,\u201d this only covers parts listed in the terms of the contract. If any part not listed in the contract fails, the consumer must pay for the repair out of pocket. These plans are considered middle tier, being more inclusive in coverage but still limited in scope. These are best for owners who want to cover specific parts of their car and spend less in the process.<\/li><li><strong>Exclusionary warranty:<\/strong> Also known as \u201cbumper-to-bumper,\u201d this is more like an extension of the manufacturer\u2019s warranty, covering so many parts that it\u2019s easier for the contract to state what parts aren\u2019t covered. This is the most complete coverage an extended car warranty offers.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of what plan you go with, make sure to read your contract carefully. Your coverage and customer experience are 100% determined by this document. Know what it covers and up to what limit, and know all exclusions so that there is no confusion when deciding whether to file a claim. It\u2019s also a good idea to compare contracts from the different companies you called to see which one benefits you and your vehicle most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It should be noted that almost every company has clauses and limitations in its service contracts depending on the state you live in. These amend certain aspects of the contract, including cancellation protocols, refund policies, claim protocols, and limitation and liability amendments. It\u2019s important to study this section to see how these amendments apply to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, extended car warranties have language built into the contract that requires you to perform the manufacturer\u2019s recommended routine maintenance. Failure to carry out these recommendations can result in denial of coverage. Be sure to keep receipts from all of your routine checkups, oil changes and any other required maintenance, since companies will ask for proof that you\u2019re keeping up with the maintenance regimen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Premiums-and-Deductibles\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"premiums-and-deductibles\">Premiums and Deductibles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though car warranties are not auto insurance by any means, the business essentially operates on an insurance model, meaning your two main areas of cost will be premiums and deductibles. And, as with insurance, the sizes of these will depend on the company you choose, as well as on the make, model, age and mileage of your car. Standard deductibles are generally around $100, and are charged either on a per-visit or per-repair basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">High deductibles usually mean lower premiums and vice versa. It should be noted that car warranty companies reserve the right to renew or suspend your contract at the end of the contract term. Eligibility requirements for renewals are the same as for new policies, which means plans are expensive as your car ages.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Exclusions\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"sds-heading--3 wp-block-heading\" id=\"exclusions\">Exclusions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All contracts have exclusions. It\u2019s important to understand what\u2019s excluded from your car warranty before purchasing your policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most plans, for instance, don&#8217;t cover routine maintenance, including tune-ups, adjustments, alignments, tire replacement, oil and filter changes, and fluid refills. Parts that commonly break due to wear and tear \u2014 think brake pads, tires and clutches \u2014 are also usually excluded, though they can sometimes be added to the plan at an extra cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some exclusion clauses prevent certain parts from being fixed. The two most common, as we\u2019ve mentioned a few times are \u201cbetterment\u201d and \u201cconsequential loss\u201d clauses. These can severely limit your repair options, as well as nullify your claims, meaning you\u2019ll have to cover repairs out of your own pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, extended car warranty plans usually don\u2019t cover cars used for commercial means, such as taxis, commercial delivery vehicles and cars used for ride-hailing. Some plans will offer such coverage, but at an additional cost.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"Bottom-Line\" class=\"wp-block-group sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"sds-heading--2 wp-block-heading\" id=\"bottom-line\">Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Service contracts \u2014 excuse us, car warranties \u2014 fill the coverage gap between auto insurance and regular maintenance and may not be for everyone. Everyone wants to believe that the value of what they get back from one of these plans will exceed the total they pay. And for some lucky people, that really happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those interested in protecting their automotive investment, whether new, used or certified pre-owned, the right warranty absolutely can extend the useful life of their car while saving them money over the long run. As Dirty Harry, the well-known industry expert put it, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to ask yourself a question Do I feel lucky?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And while you might decide that you aren\u2019t feeling particularly lucky, remember that not all warranties are created equal, nor are the companies providing these plans. In an industry prone to scams and hard-sell tactics, it\u2019s a good idea to comparison shop a few different plan providers, read the contracts thoroughly and make sure you\u2019re dealing with a legitimate company.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"Disclaimer\" class=\"wp-block-group ticss-57262c78 sds-page-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"sponsored-disclaimer\">\n<a class=\"sponsor-logo\" href=\"https:\/\/money.com\" rel=\"sponsored\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Money.com logo\" src=\"https:\/\/images.cars.com\/cldstatic\/wp-content\/uploads\/money.com_.png\">\n<\/a>\n        <div>This advertisement was sponsored by <a href=\"https:\/\/money.com\" rel=\"sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" aria-describedby=\"audioeye_new_window_message\">Money.com<\/a>.
