Does Your Extended Warranty Cover Overheating Damage?

While many extended warranty companies shy away from damage caused by overheating, Auto Service Warranty takes a much different approach.

Although damage sustained when a vehicle OVERHEATS can be severe... we take care of all repair costs for covered components provided the vehicle does not overheat due to negligence and provided you act immediately to prevent unnecessary damage when your vehicle overheats.

In fact... if your vehicle overheats and you require a tow or fluid replacement, Auto Service Warranty's FREE Roadside Assistance makes sure you get taken care of... Fast!

What is the No In-Service Date Program?

...and why should I care? One major warranty company (that shall remain nameless here) offers a no in-service date program. What's the DIFFERENCE?

Auto Service Warranty (ASW) offers vehicle warranties that BEGIN on the day you buy the warranty and not the in-service date of the car. Quite simply... ASW offers you MORE time than the others.

When you purchase a 4 year/100,000 mile warranty today... it will expire 4 YEARS FROM TODAY or when your ODOMETER REACHES 100,000 miles. BEWARE of plans being offered by other national companies... that start your coverage from the day the vehicle was purchased brand new, the (in-service date).

Compare your extended auto warranty coverage.

No Extended Warranty for Your Car?

People regularly ask me why some extended warranty companies refuse to offer them a contract on their high performance car. For example it's pretty difficult to find any warranty company foolish enough to offer coverage on certain vehicles built by Land Rover (possible quality issues, frequent and expensive repairs), Jaguar (expensive repairs), Mercedes AMG ($20,000 for an engine) and many turbo engine models like Porsche etc.

If a warranty company turns you down they should be honest about why. Be more concerned with the company that is crazy enough to cover these cars. First of all you can bet they won't cover wear and tear failures and the foremost thing on their minds will be trying to somehow get out paying your repairs.

My best advice for you if you have a high end car which no warranty company will touch, is to create your own claims reserve account and don't be stingy. Then you can be your own extended warranty.
