Feature Number Warranty For Free

The dealer for your brand of vehicle has a computer that can do a VIN lookup (likely in the service department). The easiest way to check on your warranty status without leaving the house entails calling and letting them know you want to look up your warranty and that you have the VIN and odometer readings ready.

There are two types of warranties: express and implied. Under the implied category are three major subtypes: the implied warranty of merchantability (only given by merchants), the implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, and the implied warranty of title.

Bumper-to-bumper warranties typically last between 3 years/36,000 miles and 5 years/60,000 miles, while powertrain warranties can extend up to 10 years/100,000 miles. Your factory warranty length depends on your car manufacturer, but it can be extended with a vehicle service contract.

How Does a Warranty Work? A warranty is a guarantee issued by a seller to a buyer that a product will meet certain specifications. If the product does not meet those specifications, the buyer can ask the manufacturer or seller to correct the problem. Certain exceptions apply, and not every defect is covered.

The receipt is your proof of purchase and is required to make a claim on your warranty. If you don't have a receipt or an invoice, and needs to make a claim, there are other ways to show proof of where you made the purchase.

The receipt is all you have to determine warranty coverage, and without it, no warranty repair can be offered.
