Auto Warranty Articles

  • Making an Auto Warranty Claim

    If one had the foresight to add a warranty to the purchase of their vehicle and finds themselves in a tough spot, they may well be able to save thousands of dollars in repair costs. However, making the warranty claim is going to require that the owner of the vehicle strictly adhered to the terms of the warranty and, if it proves that they didn't, they're likely in for an unpleasant surprise when they make the claim. These terms exist to protect the warranty provider from unreasonable expenses and one can count on them to be followed to the letter.

  • Avoiding the Pitfalls of an Auto Warranty

    Today, the auto industry has been hit hard by the economy, putting them in a position of trying to sell more cars while making decisions to boost the bottom line. For this reason, the number of car dealerships pushing buyers to add an extended warranty to the factory warranty has skyrocketed. Unfortunately, while many of the reputable dealerships are honest and loyal to consumers, many mark up the price of auto warranties, as a means of making more money.

  • How to Choose an Extended Auto Warranty

    You will certainly want to have an extended auto warranty to help cover the cost of repairing your car if anything should happen to it. However, before you choose the first policy and company that you find, you will need to know a bit about warranties as well as how to choose the best one for your vehicle. You might find that you have a problem with your car that isn't covered by the warranty if you don't read everything carefully. You want to get the very best warranty that you can afford - it can save you a bundle with those needed repairs.

  • The Benefits of Buying Warranties Online

    When you buy a new or used car, your dealer will probably try to convince you to buy a warranty right on the spot. Extended warranties are an excellent idea, and are a great supplement to often meager manufacturer's warranties. What many buyers don't know, however, is that in many cases, buying your warranty outside the dealership can save a great deal of time, money, and frustration.

  • Engine Modifications and Auto Warranty Coverage

    Increasing the performance of a vehicle is one of the ways that owning a car can be a lot of fun. Adding high-performance components such as better headers, fuel injection systems and so forth can make a vehicle faster and more powerful and, sometimes, these after-market parts are of a higher quality than those recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer. When a car is under warranty, however, there may be specific limitations on the amount of "modding" that may be done to a vehicle while still keeping it under the terms of the warranty.

I did quite a bit of research on Acceptable Warranty. When I saw that Consumer Reports wrote [positively] about you, I was sold.
