The Coverage…
There are many different levels of coverage available.
Exclusionary Warranties – These are the highest level of coverage one can obtain and are often referred to as bumper-to-bumper warranties. Like a new car warranty, they will cover ALL parts of your vehicle except a small list of exclusions. The exclusions are typically for routine maintenance (oil changes, tune-ups), cosmetic items (seat fabric, carpeting, body molding), and consumable items (battery, brake pads, wiper blades). Read the exclusions carefully as they can differ widely among warranty contracts. Some companies will exclude commonly repaired items like stereo systems, oxygen sensors and more.
Named Component Warranties – These types of coverages will provide a list of the parts covered and are available in many different levels. In order to do a proper comparison, you must read the detailed list and not just the system categories. Read more...

The warranty administrator will be named here; now you know what company to research. Read more...

I have been a customer of Warranty Direct for several years now and recently had my vehicle in the local Mercedes dealership for some complications; on one occasion to replace the shifter and just recently the CD changer was replaced. Andree was the representative of Warranty Direct I dealt with on 03/31/08 and she was superb in being the liaison between the Mercedes Benz service personnel and me in insuring the proper information was exchanged before repairs were made. She was very informative with me and explained everything in exact, full detail, and was expeditious in resolving all matters. No delays, hang ups or confusion.
My personal thanks to Andree for her professionalism, courtesy and the overall way in which she handled this particular claim. Read more...
