New Car Warranties: What’s Covered and How Our Team Has You Protected

Keithdrick Mack's Blog | New Car Warranties: What’s Covered and How Our Team Has You Protected

When you buy a new car, you're not just getting a vehicle—you’re also getting peace of mind, thanks to the factory warranty. At Homer Skelton Ford, we make sure every customer understands exactly what’s covered, for how long, and how to keep that protection strong.

🛡️ What Is a New Car Warranty?

A warranty is the manufacturer’s promise to repair or replace certain parts of your car within a specific time or mileage. It's built into the price of your vehicle—so you don’t pay extra for basic protection.

Most new cars include:

  • Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty: Covers nearly everything for the first 3–5 years or 36,000–60,000 miles.

  • Powertrain Warranty: Protects your engine, transmission, and drivetrain—often up to 5–10 years.

  • Corrosion/Rust Warranty: Covers body panel corrosion for extended periods.

  • Roadside Assistance: Many brands include it for towing, jump-starts, flat tires, or lockouts.

💡 What’s Not Covered?

Warranties don’t usually cover routine maintenance like oil changes, brakes, or tires. But don’t worry—we’ll go over what’s included and offer service plans if you want more coverage.

🧰 Extended Warranty Options

Want even more protection? Ask about extended warranties that kick in after your factory coverage expires. These are great for buyers who plan to keep their vehicle longer or want peace of mind as miles add up. Our team at Homer Skelton Ford can walk you through options with no pressure.

📋 How to Stay Covered

Keeping up with regular maintenance and service records is key. Stick to your maintenance schedule and use our certified service team to ensure your warranty remains valid.
