The time we buy a car, the company provides it with an auto warranty. Under this warranty, cost of all the repairs and services of a car are covered. But once the car looses its market value, this auto warranty expires. For such vehicles, an extended car warranty or an aftermarket auto warranty can be availed. This aftermarket warranty is provided by the car insurance company that offers various attractive and beneficial packages when your car meets a failure.

An aftermarket warranty can be bought through the original dealer or from the insurance company. In both circumstances there are some factors that need to be considered. The option of buying the warranty from the dealer is considered a better one because in this case it becomes easy to renew or sustain the contract in the future. But a major drawback is also attached to the option of buying from the dealer. The warranty bought from the dealer usually tends to be more expensive. It may also cover less than the warranty bought from the insurance company. But regardless of all this, it is always better to research about the insurance and company’s options before investing in an aftermarket warranty.
