  • What is the difference between an extended auto warranty and a vehicle service contract or protection plan?
    A “warranty” comes with a vehicle purchase and is included in the original vehicle price which provides specified coverage for the repair of the vehicle within a given period of time.

    Manufacturers do not provide an extension of these warranty terms. However, car dealers and companies like Ideal Auto Protect sell “vehicle service contracts” or “protection plans” which are similar in purpose to the manufacturer’s warranty in that they cover repair costs for specific components of the vehicle after the manufacturer’s warranty expires.

    Ideal Auto Protect’s coverage plans assures that parts, labor, and sales tax if specified in the extended warranty) required for replacement or repair of covered parts in your vehicle will be paid on your behalf by the administrator of your Extended Service Program.
