Most of us spend some time inspecting the vehicle before buying an old or second hand car. However, hardly anybody pays much attention to the used car warranty that is supposed to accompany the car. This is because most people are unaware of the fact that a used car dealer should provide the car’s warranty papers for scrutiny at the time of sale. Many people also do not consider it very important.

However, checking the warranty on a used car is extremely important because of a number of reasons. For one, the warranty documents serve as a guarantee that the car is in decent shape and even if it breaks down, then the new owner will not have to shell out unwarranted sums of money for its repair. Therefore, a used car with a warranty is always better than a car without one. On the other hand, a used car is much more susceptible to damage and defects arising out of wear and tear. As a car gains in years, a number of parts need to be replaced or serviced regularly in order to keep the vehicle in good working condition, and it is extremely important at this stage to have a used car warranty that pays at least part of , if not the full amount of repairs and replacements.
