Can I use my own garage for repairs?

Yes, you can, preferably not a main dealer and if you do know a local independent garage try using the Good Garage Scheme on the internet, or we can find one for you.

You can use a main dealer if you wish, as long as you are prepared to pay the difference in the charges compared to a local independent garage.

Do you have to inspect my car before I can claim?

In some circumstances, we may need to inspect your vehicle before your claim can be validated.

My repairer is reluctant to deal with a warranty company?

We understand a lot of warranty companies have call centres based abroad and overly complicated claims processes.  Ours is easy, and we pride ourselves on ensuring calls are answered by people in our UK based call centre who can help and not by robots.  We set out clearly the costs claimable and offer written confirmation of the same, so there can be no confusion.

Do I have to pay the garage myself and then claim back the costs from you?

No. We can pay the garage directly for the authorized sum via bank transfer.

Does my warranty cover for worn out components?

No, it does not. No warranty can cover for worn or wearing components on a used car. The warranty is not a reconditioning tool to replace things as they wear on your car, rather it will cover for components that have actually physically broken or have a permanent electronic defect. Even a brand-new car warranty will not pay for normal wear and tear.

Do I need to get my vehicle serviced?

Yes, You do. At the correct times/mileages in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations after you take delivery of the vehicle. We are not interested in the service history prior to you purchasing it. The service does not have to be completed by a main dealer unless you want to maintain a full dealer history, but please ensure that you retain the relevant receipts as proof.

Does my warranty cover diagnostic charges?

The warranty does not cover plug in diagnostic charges, as there are no set times for doing this. We do, however, cover physical dismantling charges in the event of a valid claim subject to the warranty maximum claim limit.

Will I have to pay anything?

When your claim is authorized, this will be for a specific sum of money agreed with your repairing garage. You may have to pay any warranty excess and /or for the components that are not covered under the warranty, plus any amount over and above the claim limit of your warranty.

Warranty refund?

There are no refunds on this Agreement after the first 28 days from purchase of the Vehicle.

Is the warranty transferable?

This depends on the type of cover, but in the majority of cases the cover is transferable to a new owner if sold privately.  In some cases, the warranty can be transferred to a new vehicle.  Please contact our Customer Services Department for confirmation.
