Some of the dealers will offer the limited warranties on the used cars, while some will not.
Just because you have a car warranty, this will not mean that your vehicle will not experience any problems. Even when a bad vehicle has a warranty, you will find that it will still spend a lot of time in the garage and you will also find that you are stranded several times. You should research on the history of the car that you are looking to purchase. Take the time to find out from the dealers if anyone ever returned the car in an accident or under the lemon raw. Before you even think of signing any papers, you will need to find a mechanic you can trust and take the vehicle to them for a checkup.
As the dealer if the car has any valid warranties from the manufacturer and whether the dealer offers any warranty on the car. You should verify any original manufacturer warranties from the manufacturer instead of taking the dealer’s word for it. Get the detailed and written description of the coverage.
Even when the car does not have any remaining warranties and the dealer does not offer any, you still have other options for the used car warranties. Some dealerships will sell some add-on warranties for a different price. you will find that these kinds of warranties will be more extensive than the warranties you would get from the used car warranties. These warranties will offer for more kinds of repair and part replacements. In other case, the car dealer may also have an agreement with a third-party warranty provider who provides an extended warranty for every purchase. The warranty servicing will be paid for or will be completely be done by the third-party. These warranties will cost you more but will offer more extensive coverage.
If the dealer does not offer any warranties and does not resell the third-party warranties, you should find a third-party warranty service. Some companies will provide used car warranties even on the cars that are purchased from the private car owners. Take the time to ensure that all the services you may require are included in the warranty as they are quite expensive.
