Automotive Service Protection Powertrain Coverage

The powertrain of a vehicle includes the engine, transmission, and drive axles. Not only do these components sustain high levels of wear and tear during normal use of a vehicle—they are also some of the most expensive components to repair. The Powertrain coverage is highly recommended for anyone with a newer vehicle that may still be under manufacturer's warranty and are also planning to keep/drive the vehicle after the original warranty expires. Routine maintenance and repairs are not covered.
