Warranty is kind of like a guarantee given by the manufacturer that even though you are purchasing the product, in this case being a vehicle he will still take care of it. This will be valid for a certain period of time from the date of purchase. A piece of paper that mentions the date of purchase, name of the dealer through whom the transaction was carried out. Also includes the auto warranty period and other details such as the kind of repairs covered under the agreement. All repairs excepting wear and tear are usually covered by the manufacturer within the mentioned duration.

Some warranties clearly mention the year and miles to be done in the car, for example 5years or 50,000 miles and so on. So, the buyer needs to make note of this so he will know how much he is eligible for. Also the first couple of overall vehicle service will also come part of this clause. The whole purpose of having an auto warranty is for the new owners to feel comfortable about the company and know he is in safe hands. Companies have websites where from the owners can get details pertaining to their warranty.
