WARRANTY DEFINITIONS AND SHOPPING TIPS

 

  • BUMPER TO BUMPER
    Only the Manufacturer can offer "Bumper to Bumper" coverage!!! "Bumper to Bumper" (from the manufacturer) covers EVERY electrical and mechanical part on your vehicle, including cosmetics, vinyl, leather, upholstery, rust, paint, paint oxidation, corrosion, emissions, and the exhaust system. Any internet website or salesperson stating that their agreements are "Bumper to Bumper" are misrepresenting their coverage!!!
  • EXCLUSIONARY AGREEMENTS View our Exclusionary rate table
    This is the most comprehensive Service Agreement that you can purchase for your vehicle. Since there are so many parts on a car, they can only list what is excluded. All parts on the vehicle not listed in the exclusions, are covered. Hence the phrase "Exclusionary." Warranties4Wheels offers Exclusionary Coverage for most vehicles 20 years old or newer with less than 60,000 Miles on the Odometer.
  • LISTED COMPONENT AGREEMENTS View Listed Component rate table
    Most of the Auto Warranties for New & Used Vehicles found at many Dealerships, Credit Unions or on Internet Websites are called "Listed Component" agreements. They only "List What is Covered". All of the other parts on the vehicle Not Listed in the Agreement are Excluded, hence the lower cost.
  • POWERTRAIN COVERAGE View our Powertrain Coverage rate table
    Powertrain coverage is the base building block on which all other
    extended service contracts are built and probably the most basic plan you
    can purchase for your vehicle. Ultimately, with this type of coverage you
    are looking for the service agreement to cover: 100% of the cost of parts
    and labor to repair / replace any of the following items however not limited
    to the: Engine Block, Water Pump,Transmission / Trans Axle Case and Rear
    Axle housing in addition to any of their internally lubricated items in the

    event of failure to perform the task for which they were designed.
  • START DATE OF COVERAGE
    Our Agreements Start on the Purchase Date of the Contract, not the Original Purchase Date of the Vehicle (like at the Dealerships).
  • DO NOT BE FOOLED BY LOWER PRICING AND INFERIOR COVERAGE!
    You need to COMPARE contracts when shopping for a Service Agreement. For a proper comparison you should get actual copies of the contracts (not brochures, as they are vague). If the verbiage on the contract states, "We provide coverage for the following components", it is a "Listed Component" agreement, and not an "Exclusionary" one.
  • REMEMBER, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!
