The warranty that comes with your next vehicle is sure to be a deciding factor when you are making that final decision. With that in mind, it is important for you to have a basic understanding of what the different warranties cover.

Two of the most common warranties that are offered is the bumper to bumper warranty and the powertrain warranty. A bumper to bumper warranty will normally cover everything on the vehicle, save for some specifically omitted pieces in some cases. This is something that would be model specific, and your salesperson can clarify for you.
