Used Car Warranty Explained

Car warranties may seem like a pretty dull subject, but a good understanding of how they work could save you time, money and frustration. Used car warranties often seem more complex than they really are.

Before looking at the specifics of used car warranty agreements, let's begin with a basic explanation of how warranty policies work.

The general idea behind them is that you pay a certain amount to purchase the policy. In return, a good policy should ensure that you don't face any further expense as a result of running your vehicle during the period of the agreement.

This means that if, for example, your car suffers a breakdown during the period of the warranty, then you could expect the policy to cover the cost of repairing your car.

A good standard of cover would take things a little further. Additional extras might well include providing you with alternative transport for periods when your own vehicle is off the road.

The most comprehensive packages might also include the cost of a night in a hotel, just in case your car fails some distance from your home.

As you can see, there are a number of advantages that lead many people to want to take out a warranty agreement.

Many consumers believe that such policies are only available for those who buy brand new cars. While it used to be the case that it was more difficult to obtain a policy for an older vehicle, there have been substantial changes to the way in which these products are sold.

You'll find that it is now perfectly possible to find a policy for a second hand car. Prices start at reasonably low levels but, as with all purchases, you'd be wise to shop around for the best deals.

Some specialists suggest that you could save up to 50% by buying a used car warranty online, rather than by purchasing an equivalent product from your local car retailer.

Used car warranty won't cover the resulting damage?
Was wondering if anyone has good knowledge on this. I bought a Suberu last Sept, it came with a years warranty. a couple of days ago a pully broke (somehow) and resulted in one of the belts coming off. The belt was spinning in the wrong place and as a result tore a gash in the timing belt cover (no damage to timing belt) and sheered some wires connecting to the air cond compressor. Its in at the Subaru local dealer, they are saying the warranty will cover the pully but not the belts or the a/c compressor etc which they are wanting to replace fully, leaving a bill of over £2000. Main expense is the a/c which I dont have to get replaced but it would leave me with no ac! Really I want Subaru to pick up the bill as its a problem that should just not happen. They are claiming the warranty does not cover damaged caused as a result of the original damaged part. Is there anything I can do to get the car back to the way it was with minimal cost to myself? Thanks for any advice! its a subaru proven warranty

Dealership Troubles. Should I Pay For The Repair Or Should I Take Legal Action?
Less than a month ago I bought a 2006 Hyundai Tiburon. After weeks of use the clutch went. The dealership does not want to replace the clutch under warranty. The dealership tried to negotiate and say they would pay half of the cost. After they looked further into the vehicle they discovered that the master cylinder also had to be replaced. This is supposed to be a Used Certified car from a local Hyundai dealership. Something tells me that they did not look over the car before selling it to us. After doing some research i discovered Connecticuts Used Car Warranty. Which claims the car must be mechanically operational and sound at the time of purchase and throughout the warrany period which is 60 days. (Link of CT Used Car Warranty Below. http://www.ct.gov/dmv/LIB/dmv/20/29/ucar... What should I do from here? Should I pay for the repair or hire an attorney. I did call another local Hyundai dealership and they said that if we had bought it from them that they would have replaced it without charge because it had been less than 30 days.
