Shopping for a new or used vehicle can be a stressful process. After a few months of research and going on numerous test drives, you finally find the one for you. Then, just when you think you’ve made it through the process, you’re faced with the option of purchasing an extended warranty. This is yet another decision you need to make, and you probably don’t want to make a snap decision when the time comes. So, are extended warranties worth it? Like so many things in life, it depends! Some Paducah-area drivers will see a lot of value in an extended warranty, while others may not. Read ahead to learn more about extended warranties with your team at Country Chevrolet GMC, so you know your answer when given the option.
When you buy a new Chevrolet, GMC, it’s covered by a factory warranty that gives you 3 years/36,000 miles of limited bumper-to-bumper protection and 5 years/60,000 miles of limited powertrain protection. Once that warranty expires, you can extend the coverage with an extended warranty. Let’s say you’re driving in Murray in your vehicle that has 65,000 miles on it, and you experience a powertrain issue. With an extended powertrain warranty, you would still have the coverage to help with the cost of the repair. Without an extended warranty, you would be paying out of pocket because the original powertrain warranty had expired.
There are varying levels of extended warranties available, so if you’re interested in one, you can get as limited or as comprehensive of coverage as you desire and avoid feeling like you’re paying for something you won’t use.
Whether you’re buying a new or used vehicle, an extended warranty is an option you’ll be able to consider. Here are some factors to think about:
