What Vehicle Protection Plan Is Right For You?

If you drive a car you purchased new, you may not have considered purchasing a protection plan because you still have coverage from the manufacturer’s warranty. That’s good for a few years, but the manufacturer warranty will eventually expire. Before that happens, it’s worth having an extended warranty in place so that there are no gaps in coverage for your vehicle. Vehicle owners can also often get better terms on an extended warranty if they take it out before the manufacturer’s warranty expires.

If you purchase a used vehicle that is not covered by a manufacturer’s warranty, it’s advisable to buy a protection plan at the same time. Before making your decision about which protection plan to purchase, it’s important to learn about the different types that we offer. We have a range of options available from Silver Protection to Titanium Protection. You can compare the difference in plans above.

 

To decide which plan is right for you, it may help to think a little bit about your priorities. Do you want a protection plan that costs more each month but provides you the additional peace of mind of knowing that almost all of your repair costs during the contract’s lifetime will be taken care of? Or would you prefer to spend less on a more limited protection plan and take the risk that you may have to pay the cost of something that isn’t covered out of your own pocket?

To decide on the extended warranty and service contract that matches your needs, budget, and vehicle history, contact our team to speak with one of our professionals. We’ll be happy to help you understand the coverage each option offers and which is a better fit for you.

Financial Benefits of a Vehicle Protection Plan

The biggest financial benefit of a vehicle protection plan is that it safeguards you from large unexpected repair bills. Instead of having to pay the repair costs all at once, you make a small monthly contribution to secure coverage. This can help you budget for repair costs. .

You can also benefit financially from a vehicle protection plan when it comes time to sell or trade in your current car. Protection plans can be easily transferred to a new owner. If your vehicle has a protection plan, a potential buyer may see this as an attractive feature and agree to pay a higher purchasing price than they would otherwise offer.

One crucial point to keep in mind is that some protection plan providers may not allow you to use your plan right away. Typically, there is a 30-day holding period. This is to ensure that people don’t just buy a protection plan because they require an expensive repair job. To get the full financial benefit from your plan, you’ll need to have it in place before you notice any problems with your car, truck, or SUV.
