What should I watch for when buying an additional warranty?

James Bell (Publisher, Auto Reviewer) gives expert video advice on: What should I do if my car breaks down during the warranty term?; What happens when my warranty runs out?; What steps do I take if I have a warranty or service contract dispute? and more...

Just the same way you were careful to make sure that the the vehicle met your needs, you want to make sure that the warranty you're going to add to that vehicle is also going to meet your needs. I think a big issue has been people assuming that a warranty will take care of any of the problems that come up, without reading the fine print. Have a look at that fine print before you sign. You might see that there are mileage limitations you weren't aware of, or time, or different feature limitations, maybe the stereo is not covered, and so you'll have to replace it on your own. You want to make sure that it's providing you the degree of coverage that you expect before you sign on the dotted line.
