An extended auto warranty is basically a vehicle service contract between the buyer and the car warranty company. As the name suggests, the warranty companies extend the manufacturer’s warranty to service and repair certain parts of your vehicle. Please remember, these are not insurance schemes or policies. The money secured from these service contracts is deposited in a ‘claims reserve account’. Extended warranties are now a big business, so that every move is done to lure the car buyer. That is why most of them are tricky, using jargon to try and confuse the buyer.
The most important point regarding the auto extended warranty is the awareness the buyer should have about it. The first question that naturally arises is whether you need an extended warranty. If you are confused, check your car’s warranty. Most of the major car companies now come with a good warranty, and the standard warranties are given for three years or 36,000 miles. Now you decide whether you need an extended warranty. If you are still confused, just check how much coverage is left. If you are convinced that you really need one, think about how long you want to retain your vehicle. If you want to keep it for more time, it would be necessary to go for an extended warranty, as repairs can come over time.

Recently I had a consulting firm contact me from the UK and one of the young associates in the firm needed information on the car wash industry for a client. They were doing industry analysis and wanted to make sure they had all their facts and figures straight. Yet the questions they asked were irrelevant to the decision of whether to proceed in the United States with a car wash chain or large network of carwashes. They asked what the percentages were of rollover carwashes, conveyor carwashes and coin-op carwashes. You see many over seas companies are eyeing the car and truck washing industry in the US after some huge mergers in the industry in the EU. Additionally one of the case study work projects at Harvard for Business Students is to review a fictitious company, which is now a real company, which is to consolidate a few carwashes in regional markets and then expand across the country. In any case, to bring you up on the current trends in the industry read this first: |
There are two types of extended warranties: those given by the car manufacturer and the other given by independent companies. The ones given by the manufacturer include a wide range of repairs, which can be done at the authorized shops. But the extended warranty from an independent firm would not be similar to the earlier one; you have check the details before you buy one.
Remember, if your car has high mileage it is difficult to get a good extended warranty. Most of the extended warranties get canceled when you sell your car. If you want to transfer the warranty to another person, of course there is a fee. So once you have decided to buy a warranty, get quotes from three or four companies and decide upon the best one. Remember, extended warranties are always risky, because what you lose is your money.
