Why compare car warranty insurance with us?

This covers almost everything on the car except the standard wear and tear items like windshield wipers, brake pads, filters, and tires. The body panels, chassis, and safety systems are all included. If you have a mechanical failure during this initial warranty period, the dealer will fix it free of charge.

A car warranty — or mechanical breakdown insurance — covers you for the costs of parts and labour to fix certain mechanical or electrical faults with your car for an agreed period of time. The parts covered vary with each warranty, so reading the small prints is important.

An accidental break down is covered by your extended warranty as long as it's due to a covered part failing. If the damage is caused to your vehicle by something other than a covered mechanical breakdown, an extended warranty won't cover it. That's what insurance is meant to cover.

Some repairs will fall firmly outside most warranties, including replaceable parts such as batteries, bulbs, wheels, and tyres. Wear and tear - such as damage to brake discs and brake pads - is also generally not included.
