Extended Auto Warranties
By Jeremy Davis

If the warranty of your car is going to expire and you d like to buy an extended warranty there are some recommendations that you should follow.

Most people think that the extended warranty is just the extension of the factory warranty: an extended warranty doesn t actually have to be the warranty by the factory but can be purchased from any warranty company.

Buying an extended warranty from the dealer usually costs way more than buying it directly from a warranty company. Car dealers often resell you a contract by one of the major companies charging you the base price of the warranty plus the amount they want to earn on your sale.

The vast majority of buyers aren t aware of this and don t imagine that buying from the dealer isn t the only option.

A warranty sold by a dealer can contain additional clauses.

There isn t a best warranty company or a generally cheaper one because every company bases its quotes on different metrics: the price you get depends on how much weight each company gives to the year of the car, the model and the mileage.

The steps to follow to find the best warranty for your car are simple:

• Request a quote from several companies, most of them offer free, no-obligation quotes ( buyers can take full advantage of the extremely high competition in this market that forces warranty companies to offer free and immediate or extremely fast quotes ).
• Before buying an extended warranty evaluate all the quotes you have, once you have found those that fit your budget make sure to carefully read the contracts and fully understand all of its clauses (as usual with any warranty or insurance company).

If you have an expensive car you should really consider an extended warranty: repairs are expensive and you should even consider additional expenses like towing, car rental, hotel accommodation that are usually included with any car warranty contract.

After you ll have your quotes you will be able to easily decide if it s worth or not.

Quotes may vary a lot from company to company so you shouldn t really base your decision only on the first one.
