The new car warranty is perhaps one of the more important assets that a new car owner should own.  Also known as the manufacturer’s warranty (because it is generated by the vehicle manufacturer or a specific dealer authorized by the manufacturer), the new car warranty provides such guarantee as coverage for certain parts of the vehicle in the instance of breakdowns, services and repairs.

Not all new car warranties are the same.  Both types of coverage provided and the limitations of the coverage can vary from one warranty provider to another.  One general rule is that all new car warranties must be provided once a new car is being purchased, inclusive within the final purchase price of the vehicle.
The new car warranty generally covers a new vehicle for up to five years, but you may get warranties which start from as low as two years of coverage.  Additionally, some warranties may include a mileage limitation that makes the warranty void if you cover a certain amount of miles before your warranty time coverage is up.  The coverage itself of the new car warranty can vary from anything between limited coverage to full coverage – it is important that you make no assumptions with your warranty.  Find out exactly what you are and are not covered for.
