An Overview Of What The Powershield 2 Year Extended Warranty Covers

automotive warranty

"Get low-cost, major component coverage for your used or high mileage vehicle!" This is the concept behind the PowerShield 2 year extended warranty offered by Warranty Direct. Since most major repairs are needed after the manufacturer's automotive warranty expires, many people choose to buy extended warranty coverage to protect themselves and their investment. In addition to offering comprehensive coverage, Warranty Direct allows consumers to visit the mechanic of their choice and pays promptly over the phone with a corporate credit card, making the claims coverage hassle-free.

The first question consumers should ask is, "What parts are covered with my 2 year extended warranty?" With PowerShield, all the traditional "powertrain" components are included: engine, transmission, computer modules and drive axles. Unlike other warranties, Warranty Direct customers will also be covered for timing belts, water pumps, oil pumps, mechanical fuel pumps, CV joints, universal joints, crankshafts, cam shafts, bearings, bushings and more.

Consumers will NOT be covered for "wear and tear" damaged components like: seals, gaskets, valves, batteries, light bulbs, tires, GPS, trim, molding, handles, spark plugs, rotors, brake pads, hoses, drive belts or wheel alignments. At WarrantyDirect.com, there are other new car warranties and used car warranties (up to 7 years/100,000 miles) that cover "wear and tear" damage and all of these parts.

Purchasers of the PowerShield 2 year extended warranty can choose the repair facility of their choice in the US or Canada. Warranty Direct pays for all claims via credit card to make it hassle-free for their customers. There are a choice of deductibles and financing options to help all people afford the service. If customers plan to sell their vehicle, then they can pay a $50 fee to transfer the extended warranty coverage to a new owner, which significantly appreciates the resale value!

Once the 2 year extended warranty is purchased, vehicle owners must adhere to regular oil changes and fluid top-ups. It's up to the consumer to ensure the proper fluid types are used at the repair facility, as recommended in the vehicle owner's manual, and that all receipts are maintained to show as proof in the event of a claim. Sometimes, people buy the plan and forget about it, never really reading it, then get upset when a claim is not covered. If consumers cannot take care of their expensive investments, then they are probably not responsible enough to be driving in the first place.
