All about Used Car Warranties
Certified used cars are the ideal way to go if you can’t afford to purchase a brand new car. Unfortunately, some people are still forced to go with a normal used car because of the cheaper price. There are some times, however, when a used car comes with a warranty. Here are some things you should know about used car warranties if you’re planning on investing in one.
• A warranty isn’t always available for your used car. The availability depends on the cars make, year, model and condition.
• If a car warranty is available, the Federal Trade Commission requires dealers to post it in the window of the car. This is typically known as the Buyer’s Guide sticker.
• Manufacturer’s warranties may be available depending on the age and mileage on the car. These are often comprehensive warranties that cover everything besides wear and tear or negligence.
• Implied warranties are common in many states, but they are often more difficult to prove and they are very limited and restricted as to what they cover.
• An “as is” sale means there is no warranty on the vehicle. Some states require dealers to stand behind the vehicle for a certain number of days, but this is rare and also very limited.
Instead of messing around with wondering if you have a covered vehicle, why not invest in certified used cars like pre-owned Mercedes vehicles? That way, you can be sure you’re covered and even enjoy some exciting features like roadside assistance.
