Yes, We Do Warranty Work

There seems to be a common misconception that if you have an aftermarket or extended warranty, your car, truck, SUV, or Jeep must be taken to a dealership. This is not true. Independent automotive repair shops can service and repair your vehicle, even if it’s under a new or extended warranty. At our shop, you can get fast service and work with highly trained technicians! We’d love to take care of your vehicle right here at our automotive shop, where you’ll receive top-quality repairs by highly rated and trained automotive technicians with dealer-rated diagnostic tools, all at better pricing by a shop that knows you!

It’s a law that independent automotive repair shops can maintain and service your warranty. All consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). This act prohibits a manufacturer from voiding a vehicle’s new or extended warranty simply because the service was performed by a non-dealer or independent repair shop.

According to the FTC, “It's illegal for a dealer to deny your warranty coverage simply because you had warranty work or routine maintenance or repairs performed by our automotive shop. Routine maintenance can include anything from oil changes, tire rotations, and belt replacement to fluid checks, flushes, new brake pads, and inspections.” It’s also important to note that the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it illegal for a company to void your warranty or deny coverage under the warranty simply because you used an aftermarket or recycled part.

One of the major perks of bringing your vehicle to an independent repair shop is the ability to make your money go further. Many times, warranties will have a limit or a deductible. Our goal is to make your warranty work for you.

Lastly, if you’re on the fence about whether or not to purchase an aftermarket or extended warranty, we suggest opening a savings account for your car and putting money aside for possible breakdowns. While warranties are great, the limitations can sometimes outweigh the benefits.

Whichever option you choose, we’ll be there for you every step of the way! We look forward to taking care of your new or under extended/aftermarket warranty car, truck, SUV, or Jeep right here. Give us a call today!
