The used car warranty should definitely be among those important pieces of papers that should be carried at all times when driving.  You might wonder why I say this; after all, it is not as important as the car insurance.  Wrong – the used car warranty is in fact one of the more beneficial services that the used car owner can have.

While the car insurance is beneficial for coverage in times when something beyond your control occurs (like fire, theft or accident), the warranty is good for simply those times when you need basic maintenance or repairs.  The major difference between the coverage provided by these two documents is the major reason why the used car warranty is often disregarded or taken for granted. 

But consider carefully that the used car is often in need of maintenance and service repairs.  Consider that you are more likely to experience a breakdown with your used car than you are to get into an accident or to have someone steal your used car.  Consider now the cost of repairing and maintaining your used car on a monthly or yearly basis, and consider now whether or not the used car warranty is as valuable an asset as I think it is.
