Five Questions to Ask Yourself When Shopping for an Extended Warranty

Our busy lives necessitate quick transportation to and fro. And you never know who’s pulling up behind you at the next red light. So when your car’s factory warranty expires, where do you turn? What goes through your head when you consider the benefits of an extended warranty?

What about a GMPP, or General Motors Protection Plan? Here are five questions to consider during your search for the right plan and why a Smith Chevy GMPP is exactly what you need to feel safe driving your vehicle.

1. Who stands behind the extended car warranty?

There are so many plans offered by so many companies. How can you be sure these companies will save you money? Do they have plans suited for your car’s make and model?

You can be certain a GMPP will save you money on inevitable repairs and provide the service your Buick, Cadillac, Chevy or GMC needs to keep going. This official, manufacturer-endorsed plan is a perfect way to feel safe on the road when your factory warranty runs out.

2. Do you know what all is covered with the plan?

When you’re shopping for the right extended warranty for your vehicle, you want to make sure you know what is covered. Some companies will make use of convenient exceptions and loopholes to keep you paying out of pocket for repairs. 

Good thing GM’s Silver and Platinum Protection Plans let you know both what they cover and what they don’t cover. No need to look for answers and end up frustrated. You know exactly what to expect with a GMPP.

3. Is roadside assistance covered?

You never know what tragedy may befall your vehicle on the day you’d least expect. Whether it be on your way to work or on a lengthy road trip, you don’t want car troubles to slow you down any longer than it takes to dial a number.

You can sigh a breath of relief knowing that roadside assistance is available with a GMPP. Dial our toll-free number anywhere in the country for help with the following:

• Flat tire change
• Towing
• Battery jump
• Locksmith/Key service (except in Kansas)
• Out-of-gas fuel delivery

4. Do you have unlimited telephone support with this warranty?

Perhaps you have questions about your warranty. Maybe you took a wrong turn somewhere and can’t access the internet on your phone. If you had a GMPP you’d have a number to call for help.

In case you’re lost and need directions, want to know the weather for your travels, or even if you want to check flight times, our telephone support can assist you. The same number that provides you countrywide roadside assistance provides 24-hour customer support. You’d be surprised at the questions we can answer. 

5. How and where do you get repairs done with the warranty?

A lot can go wrong with your vehicle. Issues can appear suddenly or worsen over time.

Rather than rely on companies that may or may not have the parts to repair your vehicle on time, consider the benefit of taking your car to your local GM dealership. With your protection plan combined with the knowledge and access to the right parts, you’ll be worry-free and saving money.
