Once your vehicle’s initial factory warranty has expired, there are many types of warranties and vehicle service contracts that can help you when faced with unexpected and costly repair bills. From an garantía extendida del automóvil, a powertrain warranty, a garantía de parachoques a parachoques, or any other type of auto protection plan, it’s important to understand what each can offer you and su vehículo in terms of protection.

One of the most common and often misunderstood types of warranties is what is known as a “drivetrain warranty.” A “powertrain” typically refers to the components that create and deliver power (engine and related delivery components), while a drivetrain usually refers to the parts that transfer power to the wheels (often excluding the engine).

For manual transmission vehicles, the following components are typically covered under a drivetrain warranty:

• Transmission (and internal parts)
• Clutch-related components (when listed)
• Driveshaft (if applicable)
• Diferencial
• Axle shafts

Al seleccionar una garantía extendida o un contrato de servicio para su vehículo, es fundamental comprender qué componentes están o no cubiertos por su plan.

As mentioned before, the main differences between a drivetrain and a powertrain warranty are:

• A drivetrain warranty commonly includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axle shafts, while a powertrain warranty typically includes those components plus the engine. Whether wheels are covered depends on the specific plan terms.
• Una garantía del tren motriz Se centra en las partes que hacen que su vehículo se mueva. Esto incluye todo, desde el motor mismo hasta la transmisión y todos los componentes que permiten que la energía se transfiera del motor a las ruedas.

Many VSCs restrict coverage for failures related to aftermarket modifications or non-standard equipment, but rules vary by contract. If a vehicle has modifications, coverage eligibility should be confirmed before purchase and before repairs. Regular maintenance is also important, as failure to maintain your vehicle can also lead to you anulando su cobertura.

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre un seguro y una garantía extendida del automóvil?

Cuando contratas un seguro para tu vehículo, aceptas un contrato entre tú y tu compañía de seguros para protegerte de posibles pérdidas económicas. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los planes de seguro solo te ayudarán a cubrir los daños causados por un accidente, un robo o un desastre natural. Si sufres averías mecánicas o necesitas otras reparaciones causadas por el desgaste normal, tendrás que pagar los costes de reparación por tu cuenta.

Afortunadamente, esta falta de protección es la razón por la que el fabricante de su vehículo ofrece una garantía de fábrica, en la que se promete que su producto funcionará de una manera determinada durante un período de tiempo específico. Si su vehículo no cumple con esos estándares, el fabricante le reembolsará las reparaciones o los reemplazos que se detallan en la garantía.

However, most factory warranties typically last three years or 36,000 miles – whichever comes first. Once that coverage expires, any repairs you may face outside of what your insurance covers are left to you to pay for. Thankfully, an extended warranty or plan de protección del vehículo, such as one from Endurance, can help provide you with protection from mechanical breakdowns or other unexpected and costly repairs so you can have peace of mind for the road ahead.
