We previously posted a few common misconceptions consumers have about their warranty. However, it’s also important to know what to expect from your car’s warranty. Here, we provide you with some tips on how to get the best bang for your buck when it comes to your warranty…
 
1) Read it! Usually when you get a new car, the warranty will be bundled in with the owner’s manual. Read through your car’s manual and warranty for a general description and specific details about your coverage.
 
2) Know how long your warranty is for. Make sure you get any problems checked out before the warranty expires.
 
3) 

Service your car regularly. For the sake of keeping your warranty in tact, follow your manufacturer’s recommended service schedule. You’ll find details about your car’s service schedule in the owner’s manual.
 
4) Keep all service receipts. No matter who performs service on your car, save the receipts. This includes anything from oil changes to tire rotations, to belt replacements, new brake pads or general inspections. This will come in handy if you have to use your warranty, because if you ever have a warranty claim and it appears you did not maintain your vehicle, your claim could be denied.
