Buying a new car is always an exciting prospect, but what happens if something goes wrong with your vehicle and it’s a costly repair? Fortunately, this is why manufacturers offer warranties on new and CPO cars that you purchase from a dealership. A Lincoln warranty will help to pay for replacement parts or covered repairs during the designated warranty period.
Manufacturer or Factory Warranty
The most prominent type of warranty is the coverage provided by the manufacturer when you buy a new Lincoln car through your North Carolina dealership. Dubbed the Lincoln New Vehicle Limited Warranty, this protection is available for any new Lincoln vehicle purchased at Lincoln of New Bern.
Types of Lincoln Warranties
Lincoln offers several different warranty policies under its umbrella factory warranty. They are as follows:
- Bumper-to-bumper warranty: four years/50,000 miles
- Powertrain warranty: six years/70,000 miles
- Safety Restraint Systems: five years/60,000 miles
- Corrosion coverage: five years/unlimited miles
- Lifetime Roadside Assistance: unlimited for new owners; six years/70,000 miles for subsequent owners
- Limited new-tire warranty: dependent upon mileage, for defects only
- Limited wear and tear: one year/12,000 miles for wheel alignments and tire balancing; one year/18,000 miles for brake pad or lining replacements
Lincoln Extended Warranty Plans
For drivers who have gone past the life of their factory warranties, Lincoln offers extended plans that can be tacked on to the end of the original warranty. The new policy must be purchased before the new-car warranty expires. These are the available Lincoln extended warranties:
- PremiumCARE: eight years/125,000 miles
- ExtraCARE
- BaseCARE
- PowertrainCARE
While the PremiumCARE plan has a designated warranty period, the ExtraCARE, BaseCARE, and PowertrainCARE plans have coverage periods ranging between three and eight years/36,000 and 150,000 miles that can be selected by the driver.
