The new car warranty is one of the most important parts of the purchase of any new auto vehicle. It is unfortunately one that is often overlooked by many people when buying their first new car (often they realize their mistake and do not repeat it with any subsequent new car purchases!). This is because many first time car buyers may be aware of what the new car warranty is or what it is supposed to provide. The car dealer simply tells them that they get a free car warranty with the purchase and the buyer comes away from the deal feeling like he hit the jackpot.
The truth is however that every new car being purchased is required by law to be sold with a manufacturer’s warranty, which is the same as the new car warranty. And another truth is that you are not required to pay for the new car warranty – it is a feature to which you are entitled with the purchase of your new car. The new car warranty is essentially designed, like the car insurance, to provide you with coverage features which assist you in the event of the need for service repairs and maintenance on your new car – something which can save you hundreds of dollars every year of the period for which you are covered.
