My vehicle is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Why should I get a Dick Genthe Chevrolet upgraded warranty?

The manufacturer’s warranty is typically for 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. Most Dick Genthe customers drive their vehicle more that 36,000 miles in three years and we want to make sure you are protected past that warranty period.

Consider upgrading if you:

• Drive more than 1,000 miles monthly and plan to lease or finance your vehicle for more than a 36 month period.
• If you want to decrease your financial exposure to repair costs.

I thought Chevrolet’s were good vehicles. Why do I need a Protection Plan?

Chevrolet’s are designed, assembled and tested to very high standards, but components used in today’s vehicles are very complex and very costly to repair. Purchasing an upgraded warranty will provide you with financial security against the rising cost of unexpected repairs.

I purchased an upgraded warranty on my current vehicle and never used it. Why do I want to purchase another service agreement?

It is great to hear that your current vehicle performed as expected. You were not inconvenienced or responsible for expensive repairs. Upgraded warranty’s are very similar to auto insurance in that you hope you never have to use it but it is good to have in the case where it is needed. An Upgraded warranty transfers the financial risk of expensive repairs to the warranty company.

What is the manufacturers limited warranty period?

On new Chevrolets 2007 and newer the limited warranty is for a period of 36 months or 36,000 miles for bumper to bumper coverage. There is on top of that Powertrain coverage for a period of 5 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.

For vehicles with a model year pre-2007 the coverage is 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.

How much does the Upgraded Warranty cost?

The cost is dependent solely on the vehicle and the plan selected. Things that determine the cost are make/model, age, odometer reading, new or used. There are varying plans that differ in level of coverage, deductable and months/miles selected.

Can the purchase price be included in my monthly payment?

Yes. The plan can be worked into your monthly payment.
