How Do You Purchase An Extended Warranty On A Used Auto?
When you buy a used car from a dealership you are usually offered the option to purchase an extended warranty on the vehicle. Most used cars are either sold as-is or are covered for only about 90 days for certain mechanical issues. An extended warranty will cover you for certain repairs that are required on the used car. It will extend beyond any warranty that you currently have with the manufacturer. And you should know that you do not have to buy that extended warranty from the dealer–you can shop around and buy one from a third-party company. Keep in mind that not all used cars are eligible for extended warranty coverage, especially when they are prone to problems. Visit a used car extended warranty company’s website online (or call in). Popular used car warranty companies include CARCHEX, Warranty Direct and Nation Warranty Corporation (see Resources below). Ask for a quote to cover your car. Give details about the vehicle. That includes the year, make and model. Enter information
