Are you thinking about buying a Porsche? Or maybe you just purchased one from your Porsche dealer and you’re wondering what exactly your car warranty means. There are a few important things that you should understand about your vehicle’s warranty.
What Does It Cover?
When you purchase your Porsche, you will be offered a warranty. Porsche vehicles are quality cars, which means they should have quality warranties to go with them. If something goes wrong with your vehicle, Porsche will help cover it.
Your warranty will provide you with comprehensive coverage for the components both inside and outside your vehicle. This includes things like your engine, transmission, drivetrain, and a range of other elements. If anything needs to be replaced or repaired, Porsche will cover the costs of the necessary parts as well as the cost of labor.
How Long Does It Last?
The standard Porsche warranty will last you for years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. The first few years of owning your vehicle are often some of the most stressful, since you might be worrying about damaging your new car. Knowing that your vehicle is under warranty will help alleviate a lot of that stress.
Along with Porsche’s standard warranty, there is also a corrosion perforation warranty that will last you up to 12 years with no limit on miles. For hybrid Porsches, there is a hybrid battery warranty available.
What Does the Warranty Not Cover?
Your warranty will cover the majority of your vehicle’s components, as well as the cost of the labor that’s required to fix them should they get damaged. But there are certain things that your warranty may not cover.
This includes things like the regular wear and tear that your car will experience throughout its life, maintenance items like spark plugs and filters, improper use of fuel, vehicles whose odometers have been altered, and unauthorized modifications. You should read over your warranty carefully when you receive it so you know specifically what is covered and how you can keep your warranty valid.
What Are Your Other Warranty Options?
Along with the standard warranty, Porsche provides a few additional warranty options as well. Depending on the vehicle you are purchasing as well as your situation, you might want to consider looking into these other options.
The corrosion perforation warranty will protect your vehicle’s bodywork from corrosion which can make your vehicle unsightly and even unsafe to drive. There’s also the hybrid battery warranty which is a great option if you’re purchasing a hybrid vehicle. The Porsche roadside response will help cover you if you ever find yourself in a sticky situation.
When you buy a new Porsche, you will get a warranty to go with it. It’s important to understand what exactly your warranty is, what it covers, and what all of your options are. If you have any questions about Porsche’s warranty, get in touch with us at Porsche Stevens Creek today.
