A warranty is a necessity for every car whether it is a new or used car. These help you to manage the unexpected expenses that might occur if your car breaks down. A used car warranty or an extended car warranty is a warranty given on a used car to provide coverage for its repairs. There may be different clauses mentioned in each warranty so it is necessary for the car owner to compare the coverage provided that suits his needs. There are some cases when at the time of purchasing a used car, the original car warranty will be still effective and can save your money on purchasing a used car warranty.
When choosing a warranty, one should be careful and go with a reputed past record as the company might prove to be in trouble, leaving you with no warranty at all. But to be on a safer side, car dealers can be more promising. Warranty documents should also be read carefully as some of the clauses mentioned might be ambiguous. A contract is signed between the company and the car owner. This includes assurance for covering of repairs, breakdowns, wear and tear of the vehicle’s body, and damage caused by overheating. Some companies also provide roadside assistance, towing services, etc. The company may however thoroughly inspect the vehicle to match its expected standards, and if unsatisfied it might also refuse to provide any warranty.

A new car warranty also called as original manufacturer’s warranty and it comes in handy when you purchase a new car. The rationale behind offering this warranty is to guard the car owner against unexpected major expenses on his car.
The warranty also ensures the car owner that the car being purchased has no defects and if any defects are found, it would be repaired frees of charge by the dealer. This warranty offers the car owner with the benefits of repairing and servicing for a limited period of time without charging a single penny from them. It is divided into two parts namely general warranty and power train warranty.
A general warranty covers the coverage from bumper-to-bumper. They are usually for three years to 36,000 miles, whichever is earlier. Completion of this would lead a lapse of the warranty. It is necessary for the warranty owners to read and understand the warranty documents carefully as some of the clauses might be misleading. Power train warranty has a larger duration. This covers the parts of engine and wheel. Another service that is offered for the warranty owner’s aid is the roadside service. This is a wide range of emergency services that you can avail if your car breaks down midway irrespective of the time or place.

The car owners can choose two types of warranties, including one that is provided by the manufacturer and the other warranty that is offered by the private companies. The warranty, which is offered by the independent car dealers, is known as Aftermarket warranty.
Aftermarket car warranties provide for the substitution of those parts of the vehicle that are worn out. It does not provide any extensive coverage, though the cost procedure may be high. It can be purchased both at the time of purchasing a vehicle and also when the original manufacturer’s warranty has expired. It aids the car owner in dealing with sudden repair jobs that might have occurred with his car. It covers everything from bumper to bumper of a vehicle. It also gives an additional roadside service, which includes services like towing, lock out service, and etc. However, it can be really helpful if your car breaks down at a remote place as it cuts down the unnecessary stress you might go through. Companies offering these warranties provide customers with an on-road trial. Only if a car is in a sound condition then the warranty is offered else the company can also refuse to extend any assurance.

The term ‘after market’ is related to the replacement of the parts of the vehicle. It is known fact that the USA alone has the aftermarket business of $255.2 billion.
The growing popularity of the aftermarket auto warranty is linked to many reasons. The question of the customer’s comfort, safety to their pocket money or accidental discomforts due to the defects in the car can be guaranteed by this market mechanism. Extended service warranties can benefit the car owners in the time of severe damages and in the cases when the vehicle is out of the warranty guaranteed by the original manufacturer.
It is a true fact that the warranty never caused any financial lose to the auto-dealers. Instead they take out extra profit out of it. The auto-manufactures generally sell the warranties at a profit-making margin maintaining the market demands. Before fixing up the actual cost of repairs for old and new vehicles, the company usually does in-depth analysis on that and on that basis generally announces the rate of warranty.
In case of an aftermarket auto warranty, the manufacturing factory never determines the warranty. Instead, it is the dealer, which directly gets involve. One may not get the value of his invested money in after market warranties, but it does support in long terms.

With more people purchasing cars, the automobile industry is flourishing at a fast rate. But, there are several factors that must be considered to before buying a new car. One of the most important among these is the warranty provided by the car by the company. A warranty fundamentally is an agreement between the company (seller) and the buyer of that car wherein the company promises to provide for all the expenses incurred if the car breaks down while still in the warranty period.
Different companies insure a car under different conditions. There are some companies which provide a “bumper to bumper†warranty which means that they will be providing coverage for all the depreciation of the car’s external components. Also, there is a “power train warranty†which assures the customer of assisting him in case of wear and tear of internal, mechanical parts of the car as well.
Furthermore, these warranties assist the customer to unlimited claims, protection against hidden expenditures and roadside assistance.
Thus, while purchasing a new car, it is always a wise decision to look into all the details of the companies offering car warranties and, hence choosing the one, which is best, suited to our requirements.

While purchasing a new car, the manufacturer provides the car owner with a factory warranty which will bear the cost for repairing your car for an agreed time period or mileage, whatever is first. When this warranty is exhausted, one may chose to go for an extended warranty. Any warranty that is not made available by the factory can be called an aftermarket auto warranty.
Purchasing these warranties through the dealer is most advisable. Though they may be more expensive or may not provide you a good coverage but still as they will make you sign a contract which will ensure your safety in times to come. However, while shopping for third party dealings, keep in mind if the company goes bankrupt, then you will be left with no warranty at all which is not the case with the dealers. After market warranty do help you save your money in the future. But they are not applicable if you lease your vehicle and turn up for any kind of service. Some of them also have a get back facility that makes them a ‘never-lost’ investment. Thus, if you want to go for a serene tension free journey, auto market warranty is a must for your vehicle.

A ‘warranty’ is an obligation, which is legally implied and factually stated by the seller at the time of selling a good or service. The warranty states a kind of replacement or repair of the good or service. In legal and business transactions, a warranty is a guarantee by a party to the other. It is of various types including the implied, express and lifetime.
Similarly, a new car warranty is a promise given by the manufacturer to the customer describing that the vehicle is free from defects. Also, that the manufacturer will replace or repair the defective parts whenever need arises. But not every new car warranty is equal in the services they provide. Though some covers the items, which are non-wear up to three years or 36000 miles while, others cover the repair up to 10 years or 100,000 miles.
Usually, a typical new car warranty is of two types such as the ‘bumper to bumper’ and the ‘power train’. Although the former covers various things except the wear items such as tires and brakes, the latter covers all the parts of a car such as the engine.
So, while planning which car to buy, make sure that you are checking the auto warranty coming with it.
