What Is Auto Repair Insurance?
Auto repair insurance is a type of auto insurance policy that provides coverage to fix mechanical malfunctions after a vehicle’s original warranty expires. This coverage can save you from paying thousands of dollars for major mechanical failures.
With auto repair insurance, you will be able to contact your policy provider when your vehicle needs a major repair, and they will pre-authorize it. From there, you’ll be able to take your vehicle to any authorized repair shop, and the insurance company will cover the payment of any costs over your deductible value. An auto repair insurance deductible is usually around $100-$250, which makes it extremely useful to have for those major repairs that could break your bank account.
What Does Auto Repair Insurance Cover?
Auto repair insurance covers large mechanical repairs for various vehicle components, including the:
-
Drivetrain
-
Transmission
-
Brakes
-
Exhaust
-
Power system
-
Steering
-
Air conditioning
-
Fuel system
However, such insurance rarely covers smaller repairs—such as new air filters, spark plugs, tires, brake pads and fluid refills or flushes, all of which are typically more affordable to pay for out of pocket. Your coverage (and policy cost) will also depend on a variety of factors, including your vehicle’s mileage, age and overall condition.
Why Do You Need Auto Repair Insurance?
Auto repair insurance is useful to have because it takes some of the stress and worry away from an unexpected, expensive vehicle repair. This benefit can help take care of the expenses when your vehicle needs a costly repair that you haven’t budgeted for. Oftentimes, your insurance company will also let you know if the mechanic’s charge is excessive and unreasonable—which will help you make the right choice when it comes to picking a mechanic for future repairs.
