Car Insurance Look

Auto Warranties – what are they?  They are typically something that you get whenever you purchase a brand new car, but do you really know exactly what they cover and exactly what the warranty is all about.  That is what we are going to talk about in the next couple blogs, exactly what the warranty is, what it covers and how long it lasts.

Auto warranties actually come in two different kinds if you are buying a new car and the first one is going to be bumper-to-bumper.  This covers everything but things that wear and tear, like the brakes or the tires.  So if something falls off?  It is covered under the warranty.

If you opt for a powertrain warranty, that actually just covers everything that makes the car move, like the engine as well as the transmission.  More in the next blog about how long they last!

After you have had the car detailed or you have done it yourself, the next step in the car selling process is to have your local mechanic take a look at it.  This means that the oil needs to be changed as well as all of the fluids that are under the hood, including the radiator and transmission.  You also want to have them change the brakes and tires if need be.

One thing that is a huge turn off for any potential buyers is the lights on the dashboard.  Check engine lights are typically bad, so you want to make sure that there are absolutely no lights on your gauges that might impede a potential sale.

Finally, you want to place the car itself, with a phone number that people can reach you in a very, very high traffic area.  After all, you want to ensure that the car is going to be seen so people can call you about it.
