Each warranty type has specific coverages and durations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To know whether a vehicle is still under warranty, you should review the vehicle&rsquo;s documents like the owner&rsquo;s manual. You can also use your vehicle VIN to check vehicle data providers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contacting the dealer or manufacturer is the most reliable way of determining whether your vehicle is still under warranty.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Modern vehicles typically come with warranties that protect the vehicle owners from manufacturing defects and faulty components. Vehicle manufacturers typically give a warranty period of around 2 to 5 years or a certain mileage number, such as 50,000 miles. This means the warranty will expire after the prescribed period or if the vehicle has exceeded the mileage number, whichever comes first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your vehicle has issues within this period, then the manufacturer will conduct repairs or replace the faulty component for free. If you&rsquo;re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/tips-for-inspecting-a-used-car\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"looking to buy a secondhand vehicle\">looking to buy a secondhand vehicle<\/a> that&rsquo;s still relatively new, you might be curious if the vehicle is still under warranty. A vehicle that still has its warranty will be desirable because you&rsquo;ll be protected from any unexpected costs if the vehicle has problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Does a Vehicle Warranty Look Like?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most manufacturer vehicle warranties are lengthy documents filled with carefully worded clauses concerning coverage and terms. This paperwork can sometimes come in the form of a booklet that lists the vehicle information and the vehicle&rsquo;s original owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Different Types of Vehicle Warranties?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Warranties offer a degree of protection by covering specific repairs and services for a vehicle within a specified timeframe or mileage limit. These warranties are provided by the manufacturer, the dealership where you purchased the vehicle, or a third-party provider. Understanding these warranty types is important if you have or are looking to get a vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Manufacturer&rsquo;s Warranty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/manufacturers-warranty-what-is-it-and-how-does-it-apply-to-your-car\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty\">manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty<\/a> comes with the vehicle when it&rsquo;s purchased from the manufacturer and this warranty covers the vehicle for a certain amount of years or miles, whichever comes first. Many manufacturers have a bumper-to-bumper warranty, which just means that it covers all the parts and systems in the vehicle, from the back bumper to the front bumper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Powertrain Warranty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some vehicles might have a powertrain warranty, which is a warranty on top of the manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty. This warranty in particular covers the vehicle&rsquo;s engine, transmission, and other critical components. These warranties are typically longer than the manufacturer&rsquo;s bumper-to-bumper warranty, lasting around 5 to 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a faulty engine or transmission might cost several thousand dollars to repair because fixing engines is labor-intensive. Powertrain warranties are a way for a brand to demonstrate that they&rsquo;re confident in their engine and transmission&rsquo;s reliability, giving you the peace of mind that you won&rsquo;t have to cover any potential engine or transmission repairs in case they break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hybrid and Electric Car Battery Warranty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The federal government requires vehicle manufacturers to give hybrid or electric vehicle (EV) batteries special warranty coverage. An EV&rsquo;s battery must come with a warranty that lasts at least eight years. The battery is similar to the engine and transmission in an internal combustion engine in that it&rsquo;s an expensive component to repair if it has issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brands like Mercedes-Benz and Toyota are some of the brands that provide 10-year warranties for their batteries, exceeding federal mandates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extended Warranty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/are-extended-warranties-worth-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"extended warranty\">extended warranty<\/a> is an optional add-on that extends the vehicle&rsquo;s original manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty. A dealership that sold you your vehicle with a three-year bumper-to-bumper warranty might also offer you an extended warranty that will extend the coverage to five years for an additional premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also referred to as a service contract, an extended warranty provides coverage after the manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty has expired. This type of warranty can be purchased from the manufacturer, dealership, or a third-party provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Certified Pre-Owned Warranty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some dealerships can sell pre-owned vehicles that have a special certified pre-owned (CPO) warranty. These vehicles are lightly used and have been thoroughly inspected. These types of warranties extend the manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty, which means they&rsquo;ll only start when the original manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty has expired. Most CPO warranties typically add another one or two years on top of the manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty. Sometimes, the dealership might even throw in additional perks like roadside assistance coverage, satellite radio subscriptions, or free maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CPO warranties are meant to give vehicle buyers confidence that the vehicle isn&rsquo;t being sold because it has hidden faults or issues that might materialize down the line. That said, CPO-equipped vehicles tend to be more expensive than other used vehicles that don&rsquo;t have CPO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Emissions Warranty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The US Federal Government mandates that vehicles must have an emissions warranty, which covers the cost of repairing or replacing the vehicle&rsquo;s emissions system. This ensures the vehicle complies with the Clean Air Act of 1970.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Check If a Vehicle Is Still Under Warranty?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Check the Vehicle&rsquo;s Documents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you wondering &ldquo;How do I check my car warranty?&rdquo; Warranty information is typically inside the vehicle owner&rsquo;s manual. Some vehicles might even have a separate warranty handbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the warranty indicates the duration in years or miles, you can cross-reference it with the vehicle&rsquo;s original purchase date and current mileage on the odometer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, these documents will only contain information about the manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty. They won&rsquo;t tell you if the vehicle has any extended warranties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use the Vehicle&rsquo;s Identification Number (VIN)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Still wondering how to check if your car is still under warranty? You should know your vehicle&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/where-is-the-vin-number-on-a-car\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"VIN\">VIN<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/how-to-perform-a-vehicle-history-check\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"check vehicle data\">check vehicle data<\/a> providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The VIN is typically found on the driver&rsquo;s side windshield. It can also be on the vehicle&rsquo;s paperwork, doorjamb, or registration. Once you know the vehicle VIN, you can input the number into online vehicle data providers. These websites include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carfax.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\"Carfax\">Carfax<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/vincheck.info\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\"VinCheck.info\">VinCheck.info<\/a>. You can also do this on the manufacturer&rsquo;s website under the &ldquo;warranty&rdquo; or &ldquo;ownership&rdquo; section. This will require you to enter your vehicle&rsquo;s VIN and other details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact the Dealer or Manufacturer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can&rsquo;t find any information about the vehicle, you can reach out to the manufacturer through a dealership and ask &ldquo;Is my car still under warranty?&rdquo;. A brand&rsquo;s customer service department can assist in finding a vehicle&rsquo;s warranty status by providing you with the vehicle&rsquo;s VIN, purchase date, and current mileage.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 4<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>Modern vehicles typically come with warranties that protect the vehicle owners from manufacturing defects and faulty components.
