A new car warranty is part of the total package that you get when you purchase a new vehicle. This warranty serves as an instrument of assurance for the buyer. You know that your car should not give you any serious problems till at least three or five years since the company is guaranteeing its quality and also paying for repairs and replacements if the need arises.

A new car warranty goes a long way in saving you from a number of repair and maintenance related costs on your vehicle. Most companies provide a number of free car servicing and check ups during the warranty period. Many of them also include breakdown coverage, even though it is highly unlikely that a new car would break down within the first couple of years. However, almost all car companies fail to include a number of basic repairs and damages that might occur because of wear and tear. This is because the majority of repairs and replacements have to be made due to damage caused by wear and tear. Therefore, the components most likely to wear down because of usage, the tires are never included in a manufacturer’s warranty while and the batteries are covered for only a year or six months.
