In this day and age of massive auto recalls by leading auto manufacturers you have to decide whether or not the new car warranty program that comes with the car is enough protection for you. Not all car manufacturers and not all new car warranties are the same.

Remember the Yugo? Are you the type of person who can bring your car in for all of its regularly scheduled maintenance on time or do you need reminders and protection against defaulting your warranty benefits because you were late for an oil change?

How long is the manufacturer's warranty for? 60 days? 6 months? 1000 miles? 10,000 miles? It's up to you to get the information you need before you purchase that new car and compare it to the type of driving you normally do and the conditions you encounter in your area to determine if you should purchase and extended warranty plan and if so, which one?

There are companies out there that will work with you and the benefit of using one of them to purchase an extended warranty plan for your new vehicle is that you can call them after you've driven your new car off the lot. Companies like 1SourceAutoWarranty, Warranty Direct, Warranties4Wheels, E Warranty Solutions, AA Auto Warranty, Warranty Warehouse and The Auto Club will give your car a professional once over, check out the warranty program that came with your new car and then suggest a new car extended warranty protection and service plan that's just right for you.
