Is the GMC Factory Warranty Enough Coverage?
When you purchase a vehicle from General Motors, you’re automatically enrolled in a GM Pro Protection plan. Those programs are typical in that they last a few years beyond the date of sale. Here’s what GM offers in its warranty plans:
- 3-year / 36,000-mile comprehensive warranty
- 5-year / 60,000-mile powertrain warranty
- 5-year / 60,000-mile roadside assistance
- 2 maintenance visits (within first 2 years)
What GM is offering is industry standard, and many motorists often wonder if that coverage is enough.
Why Buy an Extended Warranty?
While a couple of years of coverage is nice, you surely want to get more than that out of your vehicle. Do you want to be on the hook for expensive repair costs after your original coverage expires?
And with GM vehicles ranking near the top of the market in reliability, your car is likely to last a long time. You may need additional coverage to last the lifetime of your vehicle. That’s what makes a GMC extended warranty a worthwhile purchase. With a GMC extended warranty, you’ll also:
- Protect your investment in your vehicle
- Maintain peace of mind should an unexpected repair cost arise
- Help keep your resell value high
Will You Be Able to Afford to Repair Your GMC?
The good news is that GMC vehicles have a decent reputation for reliability. The bad news is that even reliable cars will experience problems and demand untimely repairs. Here are some repairs commonly reported by GMC drivers:
- Fuel pump replacement—$153–$3,028
- Head gasket replacement—$597–$5,040
- Water pump replacement—$182–$1,637
- Front-wheel bearing replacement—$137–$1,699
It’s no surprise that a $5,000 repair could seriously set you back, but a low monthly payment plan would comfortably fit into your budget. In fact, the average monthly coverage cost of a CARCHEX Vehicle Protection Plan for a 2007–2014 Chevrolet is just $75.*
