Keep one repair bill from swallowing your month.

Car insurance covers the crash. It has nothing to say when the transmission fails or the air conditioning dies in the middle of July. Endurance sells a vehicle service contract for exactly that gap: once the factory warranty runs out, the plan helps pay for major mechanical breakdowns. New customers get $300 off a new plan right now, and a quote takes about two minutes.

Three steps to a covered car

1. Ask for a free quote Tell Endurance a little about your car. Roughly two minutes, and you commit to nothing.
2. Shape the plan to fit Choose the coverage level and term that make sense for your vehicle and your budget. $300 comes off any new plan.
3. Drive with a plan behind you If a covered part fails, take the car to the dealership or any ASE licensed mechanic. The plan helps pay the bill.

The price of one repair

Endurance supplied the average repair costs. Real repair bills differ by vehicle, and what is covered differs by plan.

What Endurance gets right

Endurance plans are meant to be adjusted, not bought off a shelf. You can shape one around the car you actually own, and the coverage behind each plan is backed by an AM Best A- rated insurance company. 24-hour roadside assistance sits alongside the repair cover.

Two things count when a part gives out. One: you are not pushed into a network shop. Covered repairs can be done at your dealership or by any ASE licensed mechanic, as long as Endurance pre-authorizes the work, and a deductible may apply. Two: the 30-day money-back guarantee means you can buy, read the contract at your kitchen table, and walk away inside that window if it is not what you expected. The repair averages Endurance publishes run into the thousands. That is the reason to have a plan before the bill shows up.

A vehicle service contract is often called an extended warranty but is not a warranty and not auto insurance; it helps cover mechanical breakdown on covered parts, and every contract has exclusions. The $300 offer, plan terms, pricing and eligibility are set by Endurance Warranty Services, LLC and can change. Read the contract before you agree.
