What Each Cover Type Includes
Service Plan
Covers scheduled services per the manufacturer's specification — oil and filter changes, spark plugs, and routine inspections. Ideal for budgeting predictable, manufacturer-approved maintenance.
Maintenance Plan
Everything in a service plan, plus wear-and-tear components: brake pads, shock absorbers, clutch kits, and sometimes wiper blades. More comprehensive and better suited to older vehicles.
Warranty Insurance
Covers unexpected mechanical or electrical failures — engine, gearbox, and electrical components — that are not the result of wear and tear. Typically used once the manufacturer warranty expires.
Scratch & Dent Cover
Covers minor cosmetic damage (small scratches, scuffs, minor dents) through paintless dent repair. Helps maintain vehicle appearance and resale value.
Combined Plan
Bundles maintenance and warranty cover into one product. The most comprehensive non-insurance vehicle protection available — often the best value for vehicles over 3 years old.
Note: Car maintenance cover does not replace car insurance. Accident damage, theft, and third-party liability require a separate policy.
