What Is It

Extended Warranty - Your Car's Safety Net After the Factory Warranty Ends

Every new car comes with a manufacturer's warranty - typically 2 to 5 years. Once that expires, any mechanical or electrical failure comes entirely out of your pocket. Engine repairs alone can cost ₹80,000–₹3,00,000. That's where an extended warranty steps in.

An extended warranty (also called a vehicle service contract) is a protection plan that covers the cost of specific mechanical and electrical repairs after the standard warranty period is over. It gives you financial security, cashless repair access, and peace of mind for years to come.

At CarVaidya, we offer extended warranty plans for both new and used cars - starting from the end of your manufacturer warranty or from the date of purchase for used vehicles.

For New Car OwnersExtend protection after your manufacturer warranty expires - up to 5 additional years.
For Used Car BuyersGet instant warranty from Day 1 of purchase - no waiting, no inspection delay.
Cashless at Authorised WorkshopsNo upfront payment - repairs are billed directly to CarVaidya's warranty team.
Transferable on ResaleRemaining warranty transfers to the new owner, increasing your car's resale value.
